The NBA’s Christmas Day schedule is loaded, but a matchup in Boston between two teams with championship ambitions may be the best game of the day. Kyrie Irving, Kevin Durant and the Brooklyn Nets come to TD Garden to play Jayson Tatum and the Celtics, and the winner will take an early lead in the Atlantic Division. If you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.
The Celtics and Nets started the regular season with a win in their opening games. The Nets thrashed the Warriors on Tuesday with Irving and Durant combining for 48 points. The Celtics edged the Milwaukee Bucks in a thriller on Wednesday. Jayson Tatum banking in a game-winning 3 before Giannis Antetokounmpo squandered a chance to tie the game at the foul line.
