    • Clutch effort in fourth quarter
      Holiday totaled 14 points (4-10 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 5-5 FT), nine rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals in 38 minutes during Saturday's 114-111 win over the Pacers in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

      Advice: Holiday was a game-time decision for Saturday's game due to an illness, and he didn't look at his best throughout the game. However, he was clutch in the final two minutes, making a tough and-one that gave the Celtics their first lead of the second half and later making a huge steal against Andrew Nembhard that sealed the win. Holiday is averaging 19.0 points, 6.3 rebounds, 7.0 assists and 2.0 steals per game in the series. Rotowire.com Sunday, 9:29 am
       
    • Derrick White blocks four shots in Game 3 victory
      Derrick White shot 3-of-11 from the field and 5-of-6 from the foul line in Saturday’s win over the Pacers, finishing with 13 points, five rebounds, seven assists, four blocks, and two 3-pointers in 35 minutes.

      Advice: Neither White nor Jrue Holiday (illness) shot the ball well in Game 3, but both came up big on the defensive end of the floor. While the latter was responsible for three steals, including one in the final seconds, the former racked up four blocked shots. White has accumulated six blocked shots and three steals for the series, more than making up for the inconsistent shooting. As for Holiday, he supplemented his three steals with 14 points, nine rebounds, three assists, one block, and one 3-pointer in 38 minutes. Boston will look to close out the series on Monday night.

    • Jaylen Brown tallies 24 points, full line Saturday
      Jaylen Brown accumulated 24 points (10-of-18 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), two rebounds, three assists, one steal, one block, and one 3-pointer in 37 minutes in Saturday’s win over the Pacers.

      Advice: Boston now holds a 3-0 lead in the Eastern Conference Finals, as they erased an 18-point deficit on Saturday night. Brown and Jayson Tatum combined to score 60 points on 22-of-41 shooting from the field, and Al Horford chipped in with 23 points of his own. JB7 has proven to be a tough matchup for Indiana, as he’s averaged 30.0 points per game on 52.3% shooting from the field in this series. Brown and the Celtics will look to close out the series on Monday. And based on Boston nearly climbing out of a 0-3 hole in last season’s conference finals, they’re unlikely to take their foot off the gas. Rotoworld Saturday, 8:25 pm
       
    • Jrue Holiday (illness) available for Game 3 Sunday
      Jrue Holiday (non-COVID illness) is available for Sunday’s game against the Pacers.

      Advice: Holiday made it through his pregame workout without issue, so he will play in Game 3. With the Pacers not having Tyrese Haliburton (hamstring), the Celtics are well-positioned to strengthen their grip on the series. Boston will have its usual starting five as they look to take a 3-0 series lead. Rotoworld Saturday, 4:54 pm
       
    • Available for Game 3
      Holiday (illness) is available for Saturday's Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Pacers, Jay King of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: The veteran floor general will likely be in the starting lineup for this game after overcoming an illness, and he is expected to handle his regular workload as the Celtics look to go up 3-0 in the series. Holiday has been extremely productive against the Pacers, accumulating 43 points, 18 assists and 10 rebounds on 16-of-23 shooting from the field across two games Rotowire.com Saturday, 4:50 pm
       
    • Jrue Holiday (illness) questionable Saturday
      Jrue Holiday is questionable for Saturday’s matchup with Indiana due to a non-COVID illness.

      Advice: Kristaps Porzingis has already been ruled out, so if Holiday is absent for Game 3, the Celtics will be down two starters. Boston holds a 2-0 series lead, but Indiana is undefeated at home in this season’s playoffs. Holiday has been big through the first two games of the Eastern Conference Finals, sporting averages of 21.5 points and 9.0 assists. Derrick White would presumably start at PG in Holiday’s place, while one of Payton Pritchard or Sam Hauser would join the starting five alongside Al Horford, Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown.

    • Derrick White turns in 23/4/6/1/1 line in Game 2
      Derrick White posted a full line on Thursday with 23 points (8-of-15 FGs), four rebounds, six assists, one steal, one block and four 3-pointers against Indiana.

      Advice: White came alive in the second half of this game and had 17 points on 7-of-8 shooting after halftime, which resulted in a full stat line for him. White was phenomenal against Miami, but he struggled for most of the Cleveland series and in Game 1 against the Pacers. However, if this second half performance can spark something for him, they shouldn’t have any issues advancing to the NBA Finals. Jayson Tatum also joined White in scoring exactly 23 points, and they’ll look to keep the offense up in Game 3 in Indiana on Saturday. Rotoworld Thursday, 8:34 pm
       
    • Explodes for 40 points in Game 2
      Brown contributed 40 points (14-27 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 8-11 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one steal over 37 minutes during Thursday's 126-110 victory over the Pacers in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

      Advice: Brown has been on a roll of late, and this 40-point effort was his best scoring mark of the 2023-24 playoff campaign. The star forward has surpassed the 25-point mark in four of his last five appearances, and he should continue to have a massive role in the Celtics' offensive scheme during Game 3 on Saturday.

    • Impressive at both ends Thursday
      White ended Thursday's 126-110 win over the Pacers in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals with 23 points (8-15 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal over 36 minutes.

      Advice: Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum led the way for the Celtics in their Game 2 victory, but White was impressive in his own right as well, recording at least 20 points for the fifth time in the current playoff run and also filling out the stat sheet admirably. White holds a secondary role in the Celtics' offensive scheme, but he still delivers excellent fantasy value due to his all-around ability and occasional scoring exploits.
