Celtics List Jayson Tatum, Kristaps Porzingis as Doubtful vs Jazz

The Boston Celtics are gearing up to face the Utah Jazz on Monday night, following a significant victory over the Los Angeles Lakers, where Jayson Tatum scored 40 points. However, the Celtics will be without Tatum, who is sidelined due to right knee tendinopathy, and Kristaps Porzingis, who has been ruled out due to a non-Covid illness. Despite these injuries, the Celtics are on a four-game winning streak and currently hold a 46-18 record, solidifying their position as a strong contender in the Eastern Conference. The Jazz, coached by former Celtics assistant Will Hardy, are struggling this season with a 15-49 record and will also be missing several key players due to injuries. The matchup is particularly crucial for both teams as they approach the postseason. The Celtics must maintain their momentum while navigating the challenges posed by their injuries.
