SALT LAKE CITY – The Utah Jazz will look to snap their five-game losing streak when they face the Boston Celtics on Monday night.
The Jazz fell to the Philadelphia 76ers 126-122 on Sunday in the third game of their five-game road trip.

Jazz Schedule Gets Tougher Beginning With Boston
After facing the 76ers on Sunday, the Jazz have few remaining games against non-playoff hopefuls for the remainder of the season.
Over their final 18 appearances, the Jazz will face a dozen opponents with top 12 records in the NBA, and will only face three teams who don’t have a realistic pathway to qualify for the play-in tournament or playoffs.
The @utahjazz own the second-worst record in the NBA and have the third-toughest schedule remaining behind only the Suns and the Kings.
Going to be a touch schedule from here on out.

Utah will close its five-game road trip in Memphis on Wednesday before returning home to play seven of its next eight games at Delta Center.
According to Tankathon, the Jazz have the third-most difficult schedule remaining in the NBA, while ESPN projects the team to finish the regular season with 20 wins and the second-worst record in the league.
Meanwhile, the Celtics have won 10 of their last 12 games, including four straight, as they prepare to face the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday in a potential Finals preview.
