Celtics vs. 76ers: How to watch or stream, TV channel, start time (Jan. 20)

The Boston Celtics play the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday, Jan. 20, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.

While both teams have been dealing with the fallout of COVID-19 and the players it has placed in the NBA’s health and safety protocols — even to the point of forcing the postponement of games — it is looking like today’s contest is full steam ahead with both franchises having above the league-requisite eight minimum available players. The two teams also share a lofty perch in the East standings, with the Celtics in first place with an 8-4 record and the Sixers right behind them in a tie for second with the Milwaukee Bucks at 9-5.

However it breaks, it should be exciting contest with meaningful of an impact in the standings as can be had this early in the season; here’s when you should tune in to see the game:

  • Date: 1/20/21
  • Time: 7 p.m. ET
