Thursday is the first leg of Boston's back-to-back, so expect the first-place Celtics to hand out some maintenance days for Friday's game against the lowly Charlotte Hornets. Tatum is piling up 27.5 points, 7.1 rebounds, 5.1 assists, and 3.2 three-pointers per game over his last 14 appearances, while Brown is racking up 26.1 points, 6.2 boards, 3.1 dimes, and 2.3 threes per contest across his latest 13 showings. The two-way superstars have a tough test against a Knicks defense allowing the second-fewest points per game (108.1) in the Association this season, but they could be in for more usage if Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) sits out on Thursday.

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (knee) is questionable for Thursday's matchup with the Knicks. He's on the injury report because of a knee contusion. However, the C's are the No. 1 team in the Eastern Conference, so Tatum could just be getting a night off to rest. With Jaylen Brown (hand), Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring), and Jrue Holiday (leg), among others, also in danger of missing Thursday's contest, Derrick White, Payton Pritchard, Sam Hauser, and Luke Kornet could get plenty of action.

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (knee) isn't listed on the league's official injury report ahead of Tuesday's showdown with the Milwaukee Bucks. The 26-year-old wasn't in the lineup on Sunday versus the Portland Trail Blazers because of a knee issue. But with the C's having a lock on the No.1 spot in the Eastern Conference, it was likely a routine night off for Tatum, who has only missed six games this year. At any rate, Tatum has faced the Bucks three times during the 2023-24 campaign. However, he's struggled during those contests, averaging 20.3 points while shooting 42.9% from the field.
