Celtics Game 6 Sets Up April 30 Decision — Where To Watch Celtics Vs 76ers

where to watch celtics vs 76ers now comes down to one game in Philadelphia. The Boston Celtics visit the Philadelphia 76ers in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference First Round on April 30 at 8 p.m. ET at Xfinity Mobile Arena, with the series at 3-2.

Philadelphia forced the matchup back to the court after winning Game 5 on the road Tuesday behind Joel Embiid’s 33 points. Boston still carries the series lead, and one more win ends the round for the Celtics.

Tatum Heads To Philadelphia

Jayson Tatum and the Celtics enter Game 6 with the better playoff position, but the margin is thin. The 76ers need a home win to push the series to Game 7, and the pressure is on both sides because the result decides whether Boston advances or Philadelphia keeps playing.

The matchup has not turned into a new rivalry. Boston and Philadelphia have met 22 times in the postseason, and the Celtics have won 15 of those series. The 76ers’ last playoff win over Boston came in the 1982 Eastern Conference Finals, a long stretch that hangs over a series that is still alive after five games.

Peacock And NBCSN Coverage

Viewers can watch Game 6 on Peacock and NBCSN. Live on-site coverage from Philadelphia starts with NBA Showtime at 7 p.m. ET on Peacock and NBCSN, one hour before tipoff.

Noah Eagle, Grant Hill, Robbie Hummel, and Ashley ShahAhmadi will call the game. If the series extends, NBC Sports could have four Game 7s across Saturday and Sunday, May 2-3, depending on other first-round results.

Weekend Game 7 Window

That weekend schedule also affects the broader playoff slate. If there is a Game 7 on Saturday, it would begin right after coverage of the 152nd Kentucky Derby at 7:30 p.m. ET on NBC and Peacock.

For fans tracking this series, the immediate task is simple: tune in at 8 p.m. ET on April 30, or catch the pregame show at 7 p.m. ET if they want the full build-up from Xfinity Mobile Arena before Boston and Philadelphia settle Game 6.
