How to Watch Celtics-Warriors NBA Finals Rematch On Saturday

The Boston Celtics (21-5) and Golden State Warriors (13-13)will play each other on Saturday night in San Francisco for the first time since their series in the 2022 NBA Finals.. Here’s how to watch, with game time and TV information, lineups, bios, plus other key information pertaining to both teams.

Many have had this game circled on their calendars this season and now, it is finally time for the first rematch of the 2022 NBA Finals to occur! The Boston Celtics, the hottest teams in the NBA right now, will take on the Golden State Warriors, the defending NBA champions, on Saturday night in San Francisco.

While things have not been great for the Warriors to begin the year, they are still the defending champions and come the second-half of the season, Golden State may look like a completely different team.

It is just going to take time to get some of their new guys integrated into their complex system, but one thing that is certain is that the Warriors’ core group of Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, Klay Thompson, Andrew Wiggins, Kevin Looney and Jordan Poole remains one of the best six-man rotations in the entire NBA.

Curry is playing at an MVP level right now and with Thompson finding his shot more and more each game he plays, the Warriors are slowly showing glimpses of what we saw during their championship run just several months ago.

On the other side of things, a sour taste of revenge finds itself in the mouths of the Boston Celtics. On their home floor and currently holding the best record in the league, this game is going to be very personal for the Celtics.

Jayson Tatum has put together a very compelling MVP campaign to this point in the season, Jaylen Brown continues to prove that he is one of the best two-way players inthe entire league and Boston may be getting some much-needed reinforcements in their frontcourt with Robert Williams III potentially getting ready to make his season debut at any point.

This should be one of the best games we have seen all season long, but the big question that remains is who will ultimately come out victorious and claim bragging rights for the time being? Will the Warriors handle business in front of their home faithful and show why they are the defending champions or will the Celtics get a morale boosting victory, one that will show everyone in the league that they are the team to beat this season?

Here is how to watch Saturday night’s game with game time and TV, lineups, bios and other must-know details.
