Preview Roundups
April 17, 2021
Utah at L.A. Lakers 4:30 PM ET
The Utah Jazz visit the Los Angeles Lakers on Saturday afternoon, but they won't have All-Star guard Donovan Mitchell and also are expected to be without center Rudy Gobert and point guard Mike Conley Jr.
Detroit at Washington 8:00 PM ET
The Washington Wizards are going all out to secure a playoff berth. A matchup against the team at the bottom of the Eastern Conference standings could help the cause.
Cleveland at Chicago 8:00 PM ET
Five straight losses and 11 defeats in their last 14 games have left the Chicago Bulls out of a spot in the Eastern Conference play-in round, a position they held even as things have sputtered since the trade deadline.
Golden State at Boston 8:30 PM ET
Lengthy winning streaks collide Saturday night when the Golden State Warriors visit the Boston Celtics in a nationally televised game.
Memphis at Milwaukee 9:00 PM ET
Milwaukee's Giannis Antetokounmpo has been a spectator more than he would like over the past two weeks, but it also has given him a new perspective.
San Antonio at Phoenix 10:00 PM ET
The Phoenix Suns will go for their fifth straight win when they host the San Antonio Spurs on Saturday night in the second game of a back-to-back for the visitors.
