Summary
- Bulls significantly altered their roster through seven trade deadline deals.
- Celtics aim to win before the All-Star break after a recent loss.
- Key Bulls players are doubtful or out due to injuries before the game.
The Boston Celtics will play their final home game before the All-Star break against the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday, February 11, 2026. This marks the third and final regular-season meeting between the two Eastern Conference rivals. The Celtics have won eight of their last ten matchups against the Bulls, holding a historical advantage in games played in Boston.
The Bulls have significantly reshaped their roster, completing seven trades at the deadline. This makes the current Bulls squad considerably different from the one the Celtics faced earlier in January. However, Chicago is hampered by several injuries, with multiple players listed as doubtful or out, including Josh Giddey and Tre Jones due to hamstring issues.
The Celtics, currently second in the Eastern Conference, are looking to rebound from a recent loss and head into the All-Star break with a win. They hold a narrow lead over the New York Knicks for the second seed. Jayson Tatum remains sidelined for the Celtics due to an Achilles tear.
Following this game, both teams will have their final contests before the All-Star festivities. The Celtics will embark on a four-game road trip, while the Bulls will commence a seven-game home stand.
