The Celtics shouldn't play too sleepily given their momentum heading into the playoffs, though it may be hard to create motivation in such a context.

It has been tough sledding for the Utah Jazz, who have lost 7 of their past 8 games. It won’t get any easier for them on Monday night as they face the reigning NBA champion Boston Celtics. The Celtics are 8-2 in their last 10 games and are playing their best basketball of the season.

Tatum (knee tendinopathy) and Al Horford (left big toe sprain) are listed as questionable for Monday’s game. With a matchup against Oklahoma City on Wednesday, Boston may choose to rest one or more of its key players.
