Here’s how you can watch the Boston Celtics play the Philadelphia 76ers in the NBA London Game at the O2 Arena online.
The Boston Celtics and Philadelphia 76ers are traveling overseas for the NBA London Game at the O2 Arena. This marks the 76ers’ second game in the UK and first ever in London. It’s the Celtics’ second game in London with a preseason exhibition game against the Timberwolves in 2007. It’s the eighth consecutive sellout for an NBA regular season game at the O2 Arena.
The Boston Celtics currently lead the Eastern Conference with a 33-10 record and a six-game winning streak and already defeated the 76ers twice this season (Nov. 30, Oct. 20). Meanwhile, the Sixers are just out of playoff standings at the moment with the 9th seed and a 19-19 (.500) record but they own a four-game winning streak.
Tipoff is scheduled for 3:00 pm E.T on January 11 at the O2 Arena in London, England. The NBA London Game will be broadcast nationally on NBA TV. NBA League Pass subscribers will have to wait three hours until the game is available on the service, as it will be blacked out live due to national broadcast restrictions.
Boston locals can catch the game on NBCSB while Philadelphia locals can watch the broadcast on NBCSP. A live stream is also available on FuboTV and NBC’s Sports app available on multiple platforms, details below.
