It’s Monday, February 10, and the Boston Celtics (37-16) and Miami Heat (25-25) are all set to square off from Kaseya Center in Miami.
The Bucks take the court without Giannis who remains sidelined with a calf injury. Minus the perennial All-Star, though, Milwaukee defeated the 76ers in Philly yesterday 135-127 led by Damian Lillard’s season-high 43 points. The Jimmy Butler era has begun in Golden State. The former leader of the Heat scored 25 in his debut for Steph Curry and co. in the Warriors’ 132-111 win over the Bulls in Chicago Saturday night.
The Celtics are currently 21-6 on the road with a point differential of +9, while the Heat have a 4-6 record in their last ten games at home.
