Hawks vs. Celtics: Lineups, broadcast info, injury reports for Feb. 24
The Boston Celtics head to Georgia to face the Atlanta Hawks as they hope to stop their recent slump, having now dropped two games in a row and dropped below .500 for the first time since the third game of the 2020-21 season.
With two freshly-minted All-Stars in forwards Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum, the Celtics hope to stop the bleeding and re-establish a winning culture that has eluded them for some time. The Hawks are in a similar situation after having lost seven of their last 10 games, and now have home court advantage after splitting their away-and-away series with Boston last week.
