The Celtics He started his road trip, surpassing Jazz 121-99 on Friday in Utah. The Celtics won their fourth consecutive game, as they improved until 51-19. Jazz dropped to 16-55, as it was at the bottom of the west classification.
The C were everywhere before they built a 17 -point advantage in the first quarter. But jazz struggled to turn it into a nearby game, as they were heavy. At the end of the game, however, the Celtics closed the victory comfortably, as jazz did not have enough answers.
The Celtics were without Jaylen Brown On Friday, while treating a bone bone with subsequent impact on the right knee, according to the team. This will be an area that Celtics will monitor to advance taking into account the open playoffs next month. All-Star will reassess Monday.

The Celtics take the BLAZERS path at 18:00 Sunday in Portland for their next game. Here are four to take Boston’s victory over Utah:
Continuing dominant: Porzingis continues to fill the box score From returning from their illness. This is always a positive sign, as well as playing a larger elevation in Salt Lake City. The Celtics will be smart with Porzingians ahead of the playoffs, but he must also return his legs under him to play in games. Porzingis did a little bit of Friday, as he also shot the 9-for-15 of the field, including 3 by 5 over 3s. The C are whole with him in the program and has responded to the bell since he returned from his illness.
Bank contributions: The Celtics once again proved why they are so deep, although they were not without one of their narrow ones. The reserves encrypted throughout the game. Sam Hauser scored 14 points, while Pritchard had 18 points and four assists. Luke Kornet also continues to give the Celtics what they need, as he had eight rebounds, three blocks and was a plus-23 during his 17 minutes. Especially Baylor Scheierman, After his recent career matchIt had a quiet night going 0 to 4 from the field, all from land of 3 points. But the Rookie that gets minutes of rotation is still a positive sign, as the Celtics continue to develop their first round.
Continuing playing: Tatum has been clear that he wants to adapt to all the possibilities he has, especially on the road, where fans rarely see him on the court. Although, although the Celtics will rest some boys during this long journey, it would not be a surprise to see Tatum constantly. He also filled the box marker on Friday, ending with 26 points, six rebounds, six assists and three robberies. The six revenue was tough as he will admit that he has to clean some.
Long road trip: Celtics will not return home until April as they sail on a road trip during the season. Then they have a Monday in Portland, after Sacramento. Wait for boys like Porzingis and Horford to be released, so that they will have boys available in their rotation those nights. Brown is a knee problem that will keep him out of a couple of games, including Friday. So wait for the Celtics to mix rest and play their boys on this long stretch with a large number of trips and flight.
