Wed, Nov 4, 2026, 12:08 PM
Payton Pritchard (shoulder) is available for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.
Analysis: Pritchard was listed as questionable with a shoulder injury, but has since been ruled in for Wednesday's game against the Bucks. He's coming off a rough game where he was 0-of-7 from the field with four points in 30 minutes against the Rockets Monday. |

Wed, Nov 4, 2026, 6:47 AM
Boston Celtics
Jayson Tatum (rest) has been ruled out against the Bucks on Wednesday.
Analysis: Tatum will get the night off after playing on both Sunday and Monday. He hasn't shot the ball particularly well, so a rest night could do him some good. Paul George will be back after missing Monday's game, so the rest of the starting unit should remain the same, with George filling in for Tatum. |

Jayson Tatum Jayson Tatum (rest) questionable Wednesday
Tue, Nov 3, 2026, 11:32 AM
NBA Injury Report
Jayson Tatum (rest) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.
Analysis: Tatum played both games of the Celtics' recent back-to-back, logging 32 minutes in Monday's loss to the Rockets. Paul George is off the injury report after not playing in Houston, so he can slide into Tatum's spot if JT doesn't play. |

Payton Pritchard Payton Pritchard (shoulder) questionable Wednesday
Tue, Nov 3, 2026, 11:30 AM
NBA Injury Report
Payton Pritchard (shoulder) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.
Analysis: Pritchard most recently played 30 minutes off the bench in Monday's loss to the Rockets. If he can't play Wednesday, Mike Conley could slide into the back end of the Celtics' rotation, but that isn't guaranteed. Conley should not be rostered in redraft leagues. |
Neemias Queta Neemias Queta finishes with 16/6/1 stat line
Mon, Nov 2, 2026, 5:16 PM
Neemias Queta recorded 16 points (6-of-7 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), six rebounds, one assist and one three-pointer in Monday's loss to the Rockets.
Analysis: Despite Mitchell Robinson being available after sitting out Sunday's win over the Magic, Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla stuck with Queta as his starting center. The points, rebounds and percentages were good, but those rostering Queta likely hoped to get some defensive production as well. Queta played 26 minutes to Robinson's 15, a promising development for those rostering the former if that minutes split holds. |
Luka Garza Luka Garza scores season-high 14 points vs. HOU
Mon, Nov 2, 2026, 5:15 PM
Luka Garza produced 14 points (4-of-9 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), three rebounds, one block and four three-pointers in Monday's loss to the Rockets.
Analysis: While Mitchell Robinson (four points, four rebounds) was available for Monday's game, Garza played 18 minutes after logging 21 in Sunday's win over the Magic. The Celtics' third center established new season highs in points and three-pointers. Garza isn't where he should be in redraft leagues, but that could change down the line, given Robinson's injury history. |
Baylor Scheierman Baylor Scheierman hits three triples vs. Houston
Mon, Nov 2, 2026, 5:15 PM
Baylor Scheierman tallied 11 points (4-of-9 FGs), five rebounds, two assists, one steal and three three-pointers in Monday's loss to the Rockets.
Analysis: Replacing Paul George (rest) in the starting lineup, Scheierman shot 3-of-6 from beyond the arc. The third-year guard finished a blocked shot shy of a complete stat line in a solid overall performance. That said, Scheierman is still a player who should only be rostered in dynasty leagues. |

Jayson Tatum Jayson Tatum leads Celtics with 19 points Monday
Mon, Nov 2, 2026, 5:14 PM
Jayson Tatum accounted for 19 points (5-of-16 FGs, 8-of-8 FTs), six rebounds, nine assists, one steal and one three-pointer in Monday's loss to the Rockets.
Analysis: With Paul George out, the Rockets focused even more of their defensive attention on Tatum on Monday. While he finished one assist shy of a double-double, the Celtics star committed five turnovers and shot 1-of-7 from beyond the arc. Tatum's fantasy value has been elite through Boston's first seven games, so managers don't need to worry about his performance against the Rockets. |

Derrick White, Hugo González, Baylor Scheierman, Jayson Tatum and Neemias Queta will start Monday's game against the Rockets.

Paul George Paul George (rest) out Monday vs. Rockets
Mon, Nov 2, 2026, 9:33 AM
NBA Injury Report
Paul George (rest) is out for Monday's matchup with the Rockets.
Analysis: The Celtics are playing the second leg of a back-to-back set, and PG will sit this one out. Baylor Scheierman and Sam Hauser are candidates to replace him in the starting five, though neither player is an appealing streamer with all 30 teams in action. |

Neemias Queta Neemias Queta records nine rebounds, two blocks
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 12:10 PM
Neemias Queta produced eight points (4-of-9 FGs), nine rebounds, one assist and two blocks in Sunday's win over the Magic.
Analysis: Mitchell Robinson (rest) did not play in the first game of Boston's road back-to-back, so Queta started at center. While he didn't offer much scoring, the 7-footer was effective on the glass and as a rim protector. On offense, the Celtics got solid contributions from Luka Garza, who finished with 10 points, two rebounds, one assist, and two three-pointers. Boston visits Houston on Monday, and Robinson should return to the starting lineup. |

Paul George Paul George hits dagger three, finishes with 17
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 12:10 PM
Paul George accounted for 17 points (6-of-14 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), six rebounds, eight assists, two steals, two blocks and three three-pointers in Sunday's win over the Magic.
Analysis: Quiet for most of the first three quarters, George came through when the Celtics needed him most on Sunday. He scored 10 of his 17 points in the final quarter, including three on a triple with 1:32 remaining that extended Boston's lead to 11. It's early, but George appears to be fitting in well with his new teammates. Boston plays four games next week, beginning with the Rockets on Monday. |
Derrick White Derrick White posts 12/2/2/2 line vs. Orlando
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 12:09 PM
Derrick White tallied 12 points (4-of-8 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), two rebounds, two assists, two steals and two three-pointers in Sunday's win over the Magic.
Analysis: White took a back seat offensively on Sunday, but he did a little bit of everything to help the Celtics end their week with a victory. After shooting a career-worst 39.4 percent from the field last season, White is up to 47.4 percent through six games. His category-league value hasn't reached his ADP yet, but fantasy managers shouldn't worry. |

Jayson Tatum Jayson Tatum scores game-high 32 points vs. ORL
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 12:09 PM
Jayson Tatum finished Sunday's win over the Magic with 32 points (8-of-19 FGs, 15-of-17 FTs), four rebounds, seven assists, two blocks and one three-pointer.
Analysis: Tatum didn't have his best day shooting the basketball, but his ability to get to the foul line paid off immensely. He made 15 of his 17 free-throw attempts, the second time in three games that the Celtics' forward has scored at least 15 points on free throws. Add in the assists and blocks, and this was a solid end to the week for those rostering Tatum. Boston plays four games next week, starting with the Rockets on Monday. |

Neemias Queta BOS starts White, Walsh, George, Tatum, Queta
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 8:49 AM
Bobby Krivitsky
Derrick White, Jordan Walsh, Paul George, Jayson Tatum and Neemias Queta will start Sunday's game against the Magic.
Analysis: Sunday's game is the first of two in as many days for the Celtics, who visit the Rockets on Monday. As a result, Mitchell Robinson (rest) will sit, and Queta will replace him in the starting lineup. Luka Garza should pick up additional minutes off the bench. |
Mitchell Robinson Mitchell Robinson (rest) downgraded to out Sunday
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 4:06 AM
Justin Turpin
Mitchell Robinson (rest) is out for Sunday's game against the Magic.
Analysis: Boston plays on Sunday and Monday, so Robinson sitting is not a major surprise. Neemias Queta is the most likely replacement in the starting lineup, and Luka Garza's playing time is likely to increase. |

Mitchell Robinson Mitchell Robinson (rest) questionable Sunday vs. ORL
Sat, Oct 31, 2026, 10:31 AM
Mitchell Robinson (rest) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Magic.
Analysis: Robinson is questionable for Sunday's game against the Magic. If he's ultimately ruled out, Neemias Queta is a candidate to start and could be worth streaming. |

Paul George Paul George records eight assists, three steals
Fri, Oct 30, 2026, 4:21 PM
Paul George finished Friday's win over the Bulls with 18 points (7-of-15 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), six rebounds, eight assists, three steals and two three-pointers in Friday's win over the Celtics.
Analysis: While relatively quiet scoring-wise, George added value in other ways in the Celtics' 14-point victory. The eight assists were a season high, and he's up to 12 steals through five games. Given the amount of time George missed during his two seasons in Philadelphia, there's still some lingering concern about his availability. But he's looked pretty comfortable in Boston through the Celtics' first five games. |

Jayson Tatum Jayson Tatum records 26 points vs. Chicago
Fri, Oct 30, 2026, 4:18 PM
Jayson Tatum amassed 26 points (9-of-20 FGs, 6-of-8 FTs), seven rebounds, seven assists and two three-pointers in Friday's win over the Bulls.
Analysis: Tatum has scored 23 points or more in each of his last four games, rebounding well after a quiet outing in Boston's season opener. Against the Bulls, he scored 16 of his 26 points in the first half, shooting 7-of-11 from the field. Tatum cooled off after halftime, but it didn't matter much as Boston had already built up a large lead. He'll look to finish the week on a high when the Celtics face the Magic on Sunday. |
