Tonight’s national doubleheader will be brought to you by TNT. The first game is a Western Conference matchup when the 11-12 Rockets travel to the Big Easy to take on the 10-12 Pelicans at 7:30 p.m. ET. Fans will be in attendance for this one, as the Pelicans look to extend their 3-game winning streak versus an injury-riddled Rockets team.
Directly following at 10 p.m. ET, the late game of the national doubleheader will be a tough matchup when the 12-10 Celtics travel out west to take on the NBA’s best 19-5 Jazz. The Jazz are on the right note as they’ve won 15 of their last 16 games and will look to continue their dominance against a Celtics team that cannot find their rhythm.
There are a few games around the league that will peak the interest of NBA fans. The Notorious B.I.G. 3 of Brooklyn, James Harden, Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving travel to the Motor City when the 14-11 Nets take on the 5-18 Pistons at 7 p.m. ET on Fox Sports Detroit and the YES Network. The Pistons are on a 4-game losing streak, but the Nets have one of the worst defenses in the NBA and a knack for losing to teams below their talent level.
At 8:30 p.m. ET on NBC Sports Bay Area and Fox Sports Southwest, former two-time NBA MVP Stephen Curry and the 12-12 Warriors travel to The Lone Star State to take on the 13-10 Spurs. Both of these teams cannot find their groove and will be looking to make a statement with a win tonight. The Spurs won 100-105 when these clubs played last night, thanks to an ill advised 3-pointer by Draymond Green.
At 10 p.m. ET, the best team in the Eastern Conference will head out west when the 17-7 76ers take on the 12-11 Kings on NBC Sports Philadelphia and NBC Sports California. Both franchises have won 4 of their last 5; however, the Kings have won 4-games straight.
