Jayson Tatum DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (rest) won't play on Sunday against the Hornets. The C's are heading to the postseason as the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference. Fortunately, this will enable the club to rest some of their core performers, including Tatum, Jrue Holiday (shoulder), Jaylen Brown (knee), Kristaps Porzingis (illness), Al Horford (knee), and Derrick White (neck). Without those guys on the floor, Payton Pritchard, Baylor Scheierman, Sam Hauser, and Luke Kornet are the safest options for DFS managers.

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.

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's clash with the Knicks. He wasn't available for Sunday's blowout win over the Washington Wizards. As a result, Al Horford (knee) slid into the starting lineup, finishing with an 11-point, 10-rebound double-double. Horford has already been ruled out, so Sam Hauser, amassing 18 points, eight rebounds, and one block on Sunday, may work his way into the starting lineup if Tatum misses his second-straight contest.
