  • 19-0-0 1st Place
    • 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.

    • Scores 16 points in Game 2 loss
      Nembhard contributed 16 points (6-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two rebounds, five assists and one steal over 26 minutes during Thursday's 126-110 loss to the Celtics in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

      Advice: Nembhard extended his run of playoff performances with double-digit points to five, and he's also dished out at least five assists three times during that span. Nembhard might be in line for a more prominent role in the playmaking department if Tyrese Haliburton (leg) doesn't play in Game 3 on Saturday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:19 pm
       
    • Andrew Nembhard contributes 16/2/5 line in Game 2
      Andrew Nembhard chipped in 16 points (6-of-12 FGs), two rebounds, five assists, one steal and one triple in Game 2 against the Celtics on Thursday.

      Advice: Outside of Pascal Siakam, Nembhard was really the only other Pacer that was able to get anything going offensively in this game. He had a decent performance, but what’s more important at this point is what he may have to do in their next game. Tyrese Haliburton exited early from this game due to left leg soreness, which is obviously a huge blow to their team. If Haliburton is forced to remain sidelined for Game 3 on Saturday, Nembhard and T.J. McConnell will split the duties at point guard. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:58 pm
       
    • Doesn't return Thursday
      Kornet (wrist) had two rebounds in five minutes during Thursday's 126-110 victory over Indiana in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

      Advice: Kornet didn't return to the game, and the big man's status for Game 3 of the series Saturday should be treated with caution. If he can't go, then Xavier Tillman would operate as Al Horford's backup. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:56 pm
       
    • Jaylen Brown drops 40 in Game 2 win over Indiana
      Jaylen Brown led Boston with 40 points (14-of-27 FGs, 8-of-11 FTs), five rebounds, two assists, one steal and four 3-pointers in a 126-110 win over Indiana in Game 2 on Thursday.

      Advice: Brown obviously felt like he deserved to be on an All-NBA team, and he made sure to let the league know that he felt disrespected. He got off to a hot start and scored 24 points before halftime and went on to have his highest scoring game of this postseason. He made the All-NBA second team last season, and he did receive 50 third place votes this year, which made him the last name off the ballot. His performance was huge in helping them win Game 2, which was something they didn’t do in the first two rounds of this postseason. He’ll look to keep it going in Game 3 on Saturday as the series shifts to Indiana. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:47 pm
       
    • Luke Kornet (wrist) questionable to return Thurs.
      Luke Kornet (left wrist sprain) is questionable to return to Game 2 against the Pacers on Thursday.

      Advice: Kornet exited before halftime with this wrist issue and may be sidelined for at least the remainder of the game. Oshae Brissett has already filled out some minutes in his place, and he has played well. He won’t contribute much statistically, but he appears to be the replacement for Kornet.

    • Questionable to return Thursday
      Kornet is questionable to return to Thursday's Game 2 against the Pacers due to a left wrist sprain.

      Advice: The potential absence of Kornet will hurt the team's frontcourt depth, as the Celtics are already missing Kristaps Porzingis (calf). If Kornet can't return, then Xavier Tillman would be in line to absorb minutes as Al Horford's backup. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:12 pm
       
    • Out for Game 2
      Kleber (shoulder) will not play in Game 2 against the Timberwolves on Friday.

      Advice: No surprises here, as Kleber remains without an official timetable to return. His next chance to play will be Sunday for Game 3, but it's not looking promising. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:47 pm
       
    • Xavier Tillman (personal) active Thursday
      Xavier Tillman (personal reasons) is listed as active for Thursday’s Game 2 matchup between the Celtics and Pacers.

      Advice: Tillman wasn’t with his team for Game 1 because of personal reasons but will be available on Thursday. The reserve big man might give Boston some spot minutes off the pine but isn’t expected to play a significant role. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:04 am
