Luke Kornet News
Boston Celtics centers Kristaps Porzingis (ankle) and Luke Kornet (hamstring) have both been downgraded to out on Monday and will not play against the New Orleans Pelicans. Originally, Porzingis was questionable while Kornet was doubtful for this contest. This will be Porzingis' second consecutive missed game while Kornet was able to clock 17 minutes in their last game. The good news for the Celtics is that Al Horford was upgraded to active, so he'll likely get the bulk of the minutes at center and will run with the starting five as well. Horford will be the number-one streaming option while Neemias Queta could make an appearance and possibly be streamed in very deep leagues.
Boston Celtics center Luke Kornet (hamstring) is considered doubtful for Monday's meeting with New Orleans. The seven-footer exited Saturday's contest against the Clippers due to tightness in his left hamstring, and it appears likely that the same issue will keep Kornet completely sidelined on Monday. As the third big on the depth chart, Kornet doesn't get a lot of action, but he has played well, and Boston could really use him on Monday if Kristaps Porzingis (ankle) and Al Horford (neck) can't play. Both are listed as questionable for the contest.
Boston Celtics center Luke Kornet (adductor) is out again for Saturday's matchup versus the Los Angeles Clippers. The 28-year-old missed his previous five games with a left adductor strain. However, he's averaged just 4.4 points and 3.3 rebounds this season, meaning his absence wouldn't have meant much under normal circumstances. But with Kristaps Porzingis (ankle) out, Al Horford should absorb most of the minutes in the middle versus Los Angeles, giving him a higher ceiling in all fantasy formats. Oshae Brissett should also see more work, although not enough to become a trustworthy fantasy asset.
Boston Celtics centers Al Horford (rest) and Luke Kornet (groin) have both been ruled out for the second half of a back-to-back on Friday against the Orlando Magic. Horford is just getting some veteran rest, so he should be back for their next game. Kornet is experiencing left-adductor tightness, so it's unclear if he's going to miss any added time outside of this game. With Kristaps Porzingis (calf) listed as doubtful, the front court is going to be very thin, and the Celtics will likely be forced to go with a very small lineup. Lamar Stevens, Sam Hauser, Neemias Queta, and Oshae Brissett will all see some more time in this contest.
