Not sure who will play for the Celtics tonight coming in to Chicago on the second game of a back to back. Boston with a robust 11 game lead in the East. I’m looking at a preview of a potential first round matchup between Bulls/Celtics. 6:45 pre @670TheScore @chicagobulls net. – 10:39 AM

Injury report isn’t out yet, but my guess is Holiday and Porzingis are out, Tatum and Horford are available, and Brown is questionable and a gametime decision – 10:28 AM

The @celtics beat the Pistons 129-102 last night, their 15th win by 25 or more points this season. That ties the NBA record for most such wins in a single season held by the 1970-71 & 1971-72 Bucks and the 2015-16 Spurs.

Jaylen’s now 13 for 16 from the field. 31 points with 2 minutes left in the third quarter.

Minutes will be interesting tonight with Mann back but Powell still out.

Assume we’ll see White-Hauser-Brown-Porzingis-Kornet tonight. Kornet received a spot start next to Porzingis on Monday vs. Detroit w/ Horford, Hauser out. I’ve been waiting for that Tillman spot start though. – 5:33 PM

Asked Monty Williams if he expects Simone Fontecchio and Quentin Grimes to return this season:
“I do. When? I’m not sure, but I do expect those guys to be back.”
He emphasized that he’s “hopeful” they’ll return sometime next week. – 5:33 PM

Monty on Stanley Umude’s season-ending injury:
“We talked about him a lot, just his ability to have an impact in an NBA game when he wasn’t in a starting role. And then he gets a chance to start & has an injury like that. It’s a big blow to him and to us, based on where we are.” – 5:31 PM

Second rest night this week for Tatum, who had missed only 3 games prior. Horford joins him & will play at Chicago tomorrow. Kristaps Porzingis is active, setting him up to potentially rest in CHI. Sam Hauser makes his return after only missing 2 games with his ankle sprain. – 5:24 PM

Looks like good news, but bad timing on the Brandon Ingram injury front.
Two weeks to reevaluation for a contusion is a hell of a lot better than the alternatives.
But, a brutal period to lose Ingram with the Heat, Thunder, Bucks, Celtics, Suns and Magic on the schedule. – 10:43 AM
