Boston Celtics DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown (knee) won't play on Wednesday against Orlando. He was listed as questionable. However, it appeared he at least had a chance of playing, considering he was warming up. With that in mind, the C's have already secured the No. 2 spot in the Eastern Conference, so Jayson Tatum (ankle), Derrick White (ankle), Kristaps Porzingis (illness), Jrue Holiday (shoulder), and Al Horford (knee) will join Brown on the shelf. As a result, it could be a busy night for Sam Hauser, Payton Pritchard, Luke Kornet, and Baylor Scheierman.

Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday (shoulder) won't play against Orlando on Wednesday. The shoulder injury is nothing new. However, the Celtics have nothing to gain or lose on Wednesday night, so Holiday can get a much-needed night off after logging 37 minutes in Tuesday's overtime win over the New York Knicks. Derrick White (ankle) is also out. In addition, Jaylen Brown (knee) is questionable. As such, Payton Pritchard and Baylor Scheierman may see plenty of minutes out of the backcourt.

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (ankle) won't play on Wednesday against Orlando. The Celtics secured the No. 2 spot in the Eastern Conference, so the team can afford to give their core performers a night off, with Jayson Tatum (ankle), Jrue Holiday (shoulder), Kristaps Porzingis (illness), and Al Horford (knee) already ruled out. In addition, Jaylen Brown (knee) is questionable. As a result, the C's may lean heavily on Payton Pritchard and Baylor Scheierman to do most of the heavy lifting out of the backcourt on Wednesday night.

Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis (illness) won't suit up for Wednesday's clash with the Magic. He had a team-high 34 points in Tuesday's overtime win over the New York Knicks. But with Boston having already secured the No. 2 spot in the Eastern Conference, Porzingis will get the night off. Al Horford (knee) also won't play, meaning Luke Kornet may get the start, with the 29-year-old averaging 9.7 points, 6.1 rebounds, and 1.7 blocks in 14 starts this season. Xavier Tillman Sr. may also see extended minutes, considering Jayson Tatum (ankle) also won't be on the floor.

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (ankle) won't play on Wednesday against the Magic. He had 32 points, seven rebounds, five assists, one steal, and one block in 47 minutes in Tuesday's overtime victory over the New York Knicks. However, the C's have secured the No. 2 spot in the Eastern Conference, so Tatum will take the night off to rest his ailing left ankle. Derrick White (ankle), Kristaps Porzingis (illness), Al Horford (knee), and Jrue Holiday (shoulder) have also been ruled out, and Jaylen Brown (knee) is questionable. As a result, DFS managers could see increased production from Payton Pritchard, Sam Hauser, Luke Kornet, and Baylor Scheierman, to name a few.
