Magic vs. Celtics: Lineups, injury reports and broadcast info for March 21By Justin Quinn
The Boston Celtics play the Orlando Magic on Sunday, March 21, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place. Both teams find themselves faring considerably worse than they’d hoped at the start of the season, injuries, COVID-19 and the stress of a condensed season taking their toll on both clubs.
The Celtics are currently in the East’s eighth-place slot with a 21 – 20 record after losing three games in a row and just five of their last 10 contests. The Magic are in a much worse position near the bottom of the East in 14th-place with a 14 – 27 record and just one victory to their name in 10 games.
It’ll take place at Boston’s home court of TD Garden.
Probable starting lineups
Boston Celtics
Jayson Tatum – forward Semi Ojeleye – forward Daniel Theis – center Jaylen Brown – guard Kemba Walker – guard
Orlando Magic
Al-Farouq Aminu – forward Aaron Gordon – forward Nikola Vucevic – center Evan Fournier – guard Chasson Randle – guard
How to watch or stream
Here’s when you should tune in to see the game:
Date: 3/21/21 Time: 3:30 p.m. ET TV Channel: NBC Sports Boston
Injury reports
The Celtics continue to list both Romeo Langford and Tristan Thompson in the NBA’s health and safety protocols as expected.
The Magic list Cole Anthony (rib fracture), Markelle Fultz (ACL), Jonathan Isaac (knee) and Terrence Ross (knee) out as well, with both James Ennis III (calf) and Michael Carter-Williams (illness – non-COVID) as questionable.

OK, we lost to the Kings who were 17-24 and now we face Orlando who has just slightly over 1/2 games won to lost, 14-27. They’ve lost 5 in a row. Are we going to have a blowout? Are we going to stop their losing streak? Winning just bring us to .500! If we lose this game I’m going to switch most of my Boston watching to the Red Sox.

20 minutes before game time. The following missive has nothing to do with BB. But many of you have sound opinions on BB and other topics. Admin appears very knowledgeable about the stock market. I think Admin said he was not going to get the Vaccine. ========= I’m reading that new variants of SARS-CoV-2 are sprouting up that might be more transmissible and resistant to vaccines. We’re in a race with the new variants and its possible resistance to the current vaccine so developing another might be necessary. How long are we immune to the current one…might be like the flu…need a vaccine every year. My wife and I have gotten both doses. Are we simply sheep because despite many not wanting it, majority do want it. I mean many refuse to wear masks because they don’t feel the virus is real and some that do, are not concerned with getting it & it being a death threat anymore than getting the flu and getting over it or dying. There has been so much confusion from medical organizations, don’t touch surfaces, wear a mask, wash you hands, safe distance, quarantine for travelers etc. and then you don’t need a mask, touching things is not risky, included in the death counts are illnesses not related to the virus but counted etc. There was even a conspiracy theory that the injection would contain surveillance microchips. Ya Know, initially I read that Seniors and especially those over 80 with other maladies were most susceptible and then many people with the virus were put in rest homes and many contacted it and died. At that time I decided I wanted the vaccine but I turned down it a month early as I wanted more people to get it & see its effect. Also, as Linda is 10 years younger, wanted us to get it almost at the same time. Seems many had symptoms of arm pain, tiredness etc. but nothing serious. I don’t know if anyone has truly died from the vaccine but some were probably going to die anyway from another illness I rationalized. Then, most alarming, I was learning that younger people and some in good physical condition and athletes too got the virus, some recovered & some did not. What was truly puzzling is how it affected different people in different ways with different symptoms. Anyway, in short, I got the vaccines and I’m not aware that many have died from the vaccine or, as I said, were probably going to die anyway. We still and will wear masks, try to safe distance… indoor dining now open but at 25% capacity with spacing and weather so nice here we eat outside when we can. What is alarming is that Herd immunity is truly only relevant if we have a transmission-blocking vaccine. If we don’t, then the only way to get herd immunity in the population is to give everyone the vaccine. But I’m reading that maybe only 75% will get the vaccine as the rest are hesitant about vaccination and have general health concerns and feared side effects and some wanted to wait to see if vaccines were safe. As I said above, I too not just wanting to depend on trials administering the vaccine wanted to wait a few months after people received it to see if there were harmful medical repercussions. To my knowledge the vaccines have been shown to be safe and have generally mild side effects. If someone died after, they felt the person was probably going to die anyway from something else. Some felt the vaccine didn’t work. Ya Know, I was brought up a strict Catholic, weekly confessions, church and was an altar boy…I still remember my Latin. Went to Catholic schools and when the Irish priest asked if I had “The Calling”(to be a priest), I got the calling for the draft instead. May GOD forgive me as I recall some of us stole a little sip of the sherry wine the priest drank during Mass but it was not the blood of Christ until blessed. Now, do I believe in GOD, a Superior Being, I can’t definitely assert that I do. And being lazy if GOD is everywhere I stopped going to church other than on Easter & Christmas. I mentioned the aforementioned as relating to taking the vaccine, if any don’t know if it works but if not deemed harmful, why not cover all bases and take it? So, when I’m close to going to my reward if I have the chance and asked if so, I’ll cover all bases and say I believe in GOD. PS...My wife likes the 2nd photo better.

I am actually hoping for a loss. Let's butter Orlando up so they can give us Aaron Gordon.

I don't believe I should put anything directly into my veins.
If it was meant to be God would have given me a valve opening.
Just my personal opinion.

Terrence Ross has been out because of a knee injury. That‘s good for us, because I‘m pretty sure he would have dropped 30 on us with 7/9 3pt shooting. He always does that against us.

Be great to have NIKOLA VUCEVIC. I’d give up Kemba and Smart for him and anyone else except Tatum & Brown, & draft choices too.

I think one of our problems, is we have too many chiefs and not enough Indians! Smart thinks he's a chief,but he's barely an Indian!! Brown talks the talks but can't walk the walk! And Tatum who should be the Chief, is not that type of player, yet!!

Looks like we're "engaged" today.
46.9% from the 3-point line. Unfortunately, this is not a shooting pace we'll be able to sustain.
But it looks good while we're doing it.
I just hope we're not firing them up like this in the 4th quarter.
