NBATV will be the home to two national games. The early game will tip-off at 1 p.m. ET when the 13-12 Celtics travel to the nation’s capital to take on the 6-17 Wizards. Russell Westbrook and Bradley Beal are struggling to turn things around for a woeful Wizards team and will have their hands full against Kemba Walker, Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, and a stacked Celtics squad.
The late game on NBATV will tip-off at 10 p.m. ET when the 10-17 Cavaliers travel out west in a matchup against the 19-8 Clippers. The Cavs have been dreadful on the road with a 3-10 away record, including 7-straight losses. The Clippers have lost their previous 2 home games by a combined score of 4 points.
ESPN will have a national doubleheader with the first game tipping-off at 7:30 p.m. ET in a Western Conference matchup between the 15-10 Trail Blazers and 13-14 Mavericks. The Mavs will welcome a Trail Blazers team that is 7-5 on the road and will desperately need a win to stay in the mix in the West.
ESPN’s late game will start at 10 p.m. ET with another Western Conference matchup between the 21-6 Lakers and 14-11 Nuggets. This will be a rematch of the 2020 Western Conference Finals where the Lakers won that series 4-1.
