Preview Roundups
February 05, 2019
L.A. Clippers at Charlotte 7:00 PM ET
The Charlotte Hornets are one of the best teams in the Eastern Conference - as long as they're playing in their own arena. The Hornets will try to push their home winning streak to six in a row and pull over .500 overall when they host the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday.
Boston at Cleveland 7:00 PM ET
The Boston Celtics are surging with wins in nine of the last 10 games and outlasted one of the best teams in the Western Conference with a 134-129 home win over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Sunday. The Celtics will try to avoid a letdown when they make a one-game stop to visit the Cleveland Cavaliers on Tuesday.
L.A. Lakers at Indiana 7:00 PM ET
Star forward LeBron James is expected to play for the second time since Christmas Day when the Los Angeles Lakers visit the Indiana Pacers on Tuesday. James has missed 18 of the last 19 games because of a groin injury and Los Angeles is only 7-12 during the stretch.
Detroit at New York 7:30 PM ET
The New York Knicks look to end a 13-game losing streak when they host the Detroit Pistons on Tuesday in the front end of a home-and-home set between the teams. New York hasn't posted a victory since beating the Los Angeles Lakers on Jan. 4, which represents the team's lone win in the past 22 games.
Toronto at Philadelphia 8:00 PM ET
Two of the better teams in the Eastern Conference square off when the Toronto Raptors visit the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday. The Raptors are in second place in the East behind the Milwaukee Bucks while the 76ers aren't far off the pace after winning seven of their past 10 games.
Minnesota at Memphis 8:00 PM ET
The Minnesota Timberwolves' only win in the last four games came at home against the Grizzlies on Wednesday and they will try to turn the same trick when they visit Memphis on Tuesday. The Timberwolves are kicking off a three-game road trip at Memphis that will see them play three games in four nights.
Orlando at Oklahoma City 8:00 PM ET
The Oklahoma City Thunder look to start a new winning streak when they host the Orlando Magic on Tuesday. Oklahoma City had a seven-game winning streak halted Sunday, when it fell 134-129 to the host Boston Celtics.
Miami at Portland 10:30 PM ET
The Miami Heat are stumbling with losses in three straight and seven of the last 10 games to fall into the No. 8 spot in the Eastern Conference. The Heat will need to solve their problems in some tough places to play as they begin a six-game road trip by visiting the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday.
