Another chapter will be added to the NBA's greatest rivalry when the Celtics head to Los Angeles to face the Lakers on Sunday night.
Boston is looking to continue building momentum after the All-Star break and maintain its hold of the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference. The Celtics are coming off a 121-110 win over the Warriors in which Jaylen Brown posted a triple-double of 23 points, 15 rebounds and 13 assists.
The Lakers, meanwhile, are hoping to avoid the Western Conference Play-In Tournament. If Los Angeles' trio of Luka Doncic, LeBron James and Austin Reaves can stay healthy down the stretch, the team could make a deep playoff run.
