Jayson Tatum Cleared to Play Wednesday

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (Achilles) is set to play Wednesday against Miami after sitting out Monday for routine injury management on the second night of a back-to-back. The star forward has averaged 21.2 points, 2.8 three-pointers, 9.8 rebounds, 4.4 assists, and 1.0 steals in 32.9 minutes over his last five games, reinforcing his must-start status in all formats. Tatum's return should push Jordan Walsh back to the bench while allowing Jaylen Brown and Derrick White to resume their usual offensive roles. Tatum remains a clear lineup anchor with Boston expected to lean on him offensively.

Neemias Queta Returns Against Miami

Boston Celtics forward/center Neemias Queta (thumb) is available for Wednesday's game against Miami after missing one contest. The 26-year-old has been a steady interior presence recently, averaging 10.2 points, 9.0 rebounds, and 2.0 assists in 26.2 minutes over his last five games, giving him some deep-league appeal for rebounds and field goal percentage. His return likely pushes Luka Garza back to a smaller reserve role after Garza produced 20 points as a spot starter. With Boston thin at center, Queta has a real opportunity to maintain a steady role. His scoring can be inconsistent, but his rebounding and interior production give him some reliability in deeper formats.

Ron Harper Jr. Unavailable Against Hawks

According to Keith Smith of Spotrac, Boston Celtics forward Ron Harper Jr. is unavailable for Monday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He will sit out this evening due to a right ankle sprain. The 25-year-old's next opportunity to suit up is against Miami on Wednesday. Harper out of action won't make much of an impact fantasy-wise as he's averaging just 3.6 points in 10.5 minutes per contest across 25 outings this campaign.

Neemias Queta Ruled Out Monday

According to Keith Smith of Spotrac, Boston Celtics center Neemias Queta (thumb) won't play against the Atlanta Hawks on Monday. Queta will miss the second leg of a back-to-back after registering 17 points, eight rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block across 29 minutes in Sunday's win over Charlotte. With Queta sidelined, Luka Garza is expected to see an uptick in minutes.

Derrick White Slated to Suit Up Against Hawks

According to Keith Smith of Spotrac.com, Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (knee) is available for Monday's matchup with the Atlanta Hawks. White is set to suit up after he sat out Sunday's game against Charlotte due to a bruised right knee. With Jayson Tatum (Achilles) out tonight for rest purposes, White should see an expanded role in his return to the floor.

Jaylen Brown Set to Suit Up Monday

Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown (Achilles) is available for Monday's matchup against the Atlanta Hawks. Brown will return after missing two straight games due to left Achilles tendinitis. With Jayson Tatum (Achilles) sidelined for rest purposes, Brown should take on even greater scoring responsibility this evening, boosting his fantasy outlook.

Jayson Tatum Sidelined on Monday

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (Achilles) is unavailable for Monday's matchup with the Atlanta Hawks. Tatum will miss the tail end of a back-to-back after posting 32 points, five rebounds, eight assists and one block across 31 minutes in Sunday's win over Charlotte. The 28-year-old sitting out tonight's contest comes as no surprise, as he continues to be managed after returning from a right Achilles tendon tear. Fantasy managers can expect Jaylen Brown to carry more of the offensive load with Tatum sidelined.

Neemias Queta Cleared to Play Sunday

Boston Celtics center Neemias Queta (thumb) will play on Sunday against the Charlotte Hornets. The Portuguese big man has received official clearance to play after being listed as questionable on the initial injury report. The team upgraded Queta's status to probable earlier in the day. Since the Hornets limited him to two points and two rebounds on March 4, Queta has averaged 9.1 points, 8.8 rebounds, and 2.1 assists per game.

Derrick White Won't Play Sunday

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (knee) won't play on Sunday against the Charlotte Hornets. The team has ruled him out after initially listing him as questionable for the game. Boston will also be without Jaylen Brown (Achilles) on Sunday, so Jayson Tatum and Payton Pritchard should receive heavy usage on the offensive end. Meanwhile, players like Baylor Scheierman and Hugo Gonzalez are set to log more minutes.

Jayson Tatum is Upgraded to Available

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (Achilles) has been upgraded to available ahead of Sunday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Tatum came into this game as questionable for injury management purposes. They've decided to start Tatum and give Jaylen Brown (Achilles) the night off. This is the front end of a back-to-back set, so Tatum could rest on Monday with Brown returning to the mix against the Atlanta Hawks. For now, fantasy managers can go ahead and get Tatum active in their lineups. Tatum will likely be asked to carry the load offensively with Brown unavailable.

Jaylen Brown to Miss Second Straight Game

Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown (Achilles) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Brown will miss his second game in a row due to left Achilles tendinitis. This is the front end of a back-to-back set, so we'll see if Brown is available against the Atlanta Hawks on Monday. The absence of Brown should mean that Baylor Scheierman should stick in the starting five. The rookie guard finished with three points, six rebounds, and two assists across 28 minutes of action on Friday. Hugo Gonzalez and Jordan Walsh could also see increased roles on Sunday. None of these players are great streaming options ahead of Sunday's contest. Payton Pritchard is the best DFS option outside of Jayson Tatum for the Celtics on Sunday.

Jaylen Brown Questionable Sunday

Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown (Achilles) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He may be sidelined for a second consecutive contest due to left Achilles tendinitis. Brown was labeled day-to-day on Friday, but the team must be careful with his workload, as the Celtics will start a back-to-back on Sunday and are scheduled to play three times in four nights. Jayson Tatum (Achilles) and Derrick White (knee) are also questionable, so Boston's reserves could have a larger say in Sunday's contest.

Neemias Queta Questionable for Sunday

Boston Celtics forward/center Neemias Queta (thumb) is questionable for Sunday's game against Charlotte as he continues to deal with a right thumb sprain he has recently played through. If he is unable to go, Luka Garza could step into a larger role after posting 11 points, four rebounds, and two assists in 15 minutes off the bench Friday, giving him some deep-league streaming appeal for rebounds and efficient scoring. Payton Pritchard and Sam Hauser could also see more consistent minutes and opportunities with the second unit.

Jayson Tatum Could Rest on Back-to-Back

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (Achilles) is questionable for Sunday's game against Charlotte and could sit for maintenance on the first night of a back-to-back. If he rests, Payton Pritchard would again profile as a strong DFS target after logging 35 minutes with 36 points, six three-pointers, seven rebounds, and four assists Friday, while Sam Hauser and Baylor Scheierman could see expanded scoring roles. Jaylen Brown (Achilles) and Derrick White also (knee) carry injury tags, which could further thin the rotation.

Derrick White Could Miss Hornets Game

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against Charlotte after managing a right knee contusion that has recently appeared on the injury report. If he is held out, Pritchard would likely take on more ballhandling duties after finishing with 36 points, six three-pointers, seven rebounds, and four assists in his last outing, reinforcing his value as a strong DFS and daily-lineup option. Jayson Tatum (Achilles) and Jaylen Brown (Achilles) could also see slight usage bumps if available.

Neemias Queta is Upgraded to Available

Boston Celtics center Neemias Queta (thumb) is available to play ahead of Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Queta was listed as questionable coming into this game due to a right thumb sprain. Fantasy managers shouldn't be worried about the injury impacting his ability on the court. Over the last six games, Queta is averaging 11.0 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 2.7 assists across 27.9 minutes per game. The 26-year-old has been quietly putting together a strong season for the Celtics. He's usually more of a deep league option, but could take on a larger role offensively with Jaylen Brown (calf) ruled out on Friday.

Jaylen Brown is Ruled Out on Friday

Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown (calf) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Brown was questionable coming into this game due to a right calf injury. The superstar forward won't be able to shake the questionable tag and has been downgraded to out. The absence of Brown should mean that Jayson Tatum, Derrick White, and Payton Pritchard take on larger roles offensively. Baylor Scheierman is likely to see an expanded role in the rotation and should offer decent streaming appeal with Brown ruled out. The next chance for Brown to play will come on Sunday, so fantasy managers should check back for an update ahead of that game.

Derrick White is Cleared for Friday's Game

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (knee) is available ahead of Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. White will shed the questionable tag and suit up despite dealing with a right knee injury. The expectation is that White will be asked to take on a larger role offensively with Jaylen Brown (calf) ruled out. This season, White is averaging 17.2 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 5.5 assists across 34.2 minutes per game. He should see a slight uptick in value with Brown sidelined, but is a must-start regardless of Brown's status. Fantasy managers should make sure White is active in their lineups ahead of tip-off.

Neemias Queta Questionable for Friday

Boston Celtics forward/center Neemias Queta (thumb) is questionable for Friday's game against Atlanta due to a right thumb sprain that could force him to miss time. If he sits, Luka Garza could move into a larger role after finishing with seven points, one three-pointer, and two rebounds in 12 minutes off the bench Wednesday. Garza could be a fringe streaming option for managers needing frontcourt depth. His potential absence could also push Boston toward smaller lineups, with Jayson Tatum and Sam Hauser possibly seeing more rebounding opportunities.

Derrick White Iffy Against Hawks

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against Atlanta after logging 33 minutes in Wednesday's win while managing a knee bruise. If White is unavailable, Payton Pritchard would likely take on a larger role after finishing with 14 points, four three-pointers, two rebounds, one assist, and one block in 33 minutes off the bench. Pritchard is already rostered in most leagues but would see a usage bump, while Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown (calf), if cleared to play, could also take on more playmaking duties.
