Absent from the first injury report released by the Celtics, Brown is now doubtful due to lower back spasms. His absence would result in more prominent roles for Anfernee Simons and Baylor Scheierman, not to mention starters Derrick White and Payton Pritchard.

White brought a little extra against his former organization, finishing just shy of his fourth 30-point performance of the season. The 31-year-old guard provided his usual blend of scoring and defensive impact in this one, notching four stocks, while coming up just short of reaching double-digit rebounds for the first time this year. He’s been one of the hottest all-around players in the fantasy landscape of late, averaging an absurd 19.8 points, 5.1 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 1.6 steals and 2.5 blocks in eight games over the past two weeks. The Celtics are in line for a three-game week that includes road showdowns against the Pacers, Heat and Hawks.

Brown flirted with a triple-double on the second night of a back-to-back after dropping 25 points in a win over the Raptors on Friday evening. The 29-year-old franchise cornerstone has gone up a level this season as Boston’s primary scoring option, averaging 29.5 points through 36 games.

Smith was back in the Bulls’ rotation after a two-game absence, and the playing time wasn’t too far removed from his season average (17.7 mpg). He didn’t shoot the ball well, but the rebounds and blocks will be helpful for deep-league managers who have Smith rostered. The Bulls begin a four-game Week 13 with a back-to-back on Tuesday and Wednesday, so there may be some questions regarding Smith’s availability.

Matching up with Cooper Flagg for the first time this season, Buzelis had a good night. However, it could have been much better for the second-year forward, who missed all five of his three-point attempts. As a result, Buzelis failed to record his third consecutive 20-point game. The most significant issue for Buzelis in fantasy basketball recently has been the foul line, where he has made 66.7 percent of his attempts over the past two weeks. He’s shooting 77.2 percent for the season, so there shouldn’t be too much concern about a player offering top-100 fantasy value.

For the first time this season, Vučević has recorded double-doubles in three consecutive games. The Bulls spread the wealth offensively on Saturday, with seven players scoring in double figures. Vooch supplemented his double-double with a few assists and three “stocks,” the most in a game for him since December 21. Shooting 55.4 percent from the field, Vučević has been close to a top-25 player in eight-cat formats over the past two weeks.

For the first time this season, Dosunmu has scored at least 20 points in consecutive games. His overall stat line was excellent, with the Bulls’ guard having an efficient night at the office. Add in the assists and steals, and this was a good way for Dosunmu to end Week 12. The Bulls begin a four-game Week 13 with a back-to-back on Tuesday and Wednesday. How high Dosunmu’s fantasy ceiling is depends partly on the availability of Josh Giddey (hamstring), who should be re-evaluated soon, per the timeline provided at the time of his injury.

The Bulls ended their three-game losing streak on Saturday, with offensive balance being the reason. White led seven Bulls in double figures with 22 points, making his first start since December 29. When available, his fantasy value has not met the expectations of fantasy managers, with White ranked just inside the top-150 in eight-cat formats. The Bulls begin a four-game Week 13 in Houston on Tuesday, and that’s the first game of a back-to-back.

Collins has been out since late December with a sprained left big toe. Bulls head coach Billy Donovan said on Saturday that the 6-foot-11 forward/center suffered a “pretty significant sprain” and will remain in a walking boot for the foreseeable future. Surgery isn’t currently on the table, but the team has been seeking additional opinions on Collins’ injury. Chicago will continue to rely on Jalen Smith to absorb most of the backup center minutes.

It’s not hyperbolic to suggest that Brown has morphed into a legitimate MVP candidate this season as he’s topped 25 points in 13 of 15 games since the start of December while propelling the Celtics towards the apex of the Eastern Conference without Jayson Tatum. The 29-year-old franchise cornerstone contributed 13 early points as the Celtics shot 61 percent from the floor in the opening half and wound up pulling away in the late stages. He got to the charity stripe a whopping 13 times and knocked down his final 12 attempts from the line. The Celtics have been one of the hottest teams in the Eastern Conference, winning 13 of their last 17 game. They’ll close out a back-to-back on Saturday evening when they host the Spurs at TG Garden.

Pritchard showcases his signature skillset in this one, consistently driving to the basket and creating shot opportunities beyond the arc, parachuting in whenever the Celtics needed to create something out of nothing on a possession. The 27-year-old sharp-shooting facilitator dished out eight assists while scoring 16 of his 27 points in the second half to help Boston pull away for a relatively easy win. He’s been a phenomenal fantasy contributor over the past two weeks, averaging 17.1 points, 4.6 rebounds, 5.7 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.3 blocks across seven games during that span.

Hauser was feeling it in the early stages of the contest, hitting four three-pointers in the opening stanza as the Celtics built an early advantage. The 28-year-old sharpshooter doesn’t offer a ton of fantasy value as he’s prone to the typical ebbs and flows that a hot-and-cold three-point specialist typically deals with on a night-to-night basis. This was just his ninth double-digit scoring performance of the season.

White has been one of the most impactful fantasy contributors over the past two weeks, delivering first-round value during that seven-game span, averaging 18.4 points, 4.6 rebounds, 5.9 assists, 1.6 steals and a staggering 2.6 blocks. The 31-year-old defensive wizard became just the fourth player 6-foot-4 or under to record 500 career blocks earlier this week and has notched at least two blocks in five of his last six games.

Smith has missed Chicago’s last two games due to concussion protocols.

Simons continues to get more comfortable with his role in Boston, having scored in double figures in six straight and nine of his last ten games. Unfortunately for fantasy managers who have him rostered, this has not resulted in increased fantasy value. Over the past three weeks, Simons is still ranked outside the top-150 in eight- and nine-cat formats. Given how competitive the Celtics have been, it would be surprising to see them make any drastic changes to the roster before the trade deadline, which would not be a good thing for Simons’ fantasy value.

Being the best shot-blocking guard in the NBA gives White’s fantasy value a welcome boost, especially in category leagues. He recorded three more rejections on Wednesday, extending his streak with at least one to 11 consecutive games. Due partly to that production, White has been a first-round player in eight- and nine-cat formats over the past three weeks. The Celtics return to action on Friday against the Raptors.

Queta’s overall stat line was lean, except in one category: rebounds. Two days removed from grabbing 13 boards in a win over the Bulls, he tallied a career-high 20 against the Nuggets. Rostered in 37 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Queta has offered top-100 per-game value over the past two weeks. Given his productivity throughout the season, the former second-round pick is worth a look in some 12-team formats, especially where there’s a need for rebounds.

After a rough night in Monday’s win over the Bulls, Brown got back on track Wednesday night in terms of scoring. Since December 2, he’s tallied at least 30 points in 11 of the 14 games that he’s played. Add in the rebounds, assists and three-pointers, and the overall stat line recorded on Wednesday was excellent. However, Brown was responsible for seven turnovers, the most he’s had in a game since November 18 (eight vs. Brooklyn). Due to that category, there has been a three-round gap in Brown’s eight- and nine-cat values over the past month.

Over his last two games, Vučević has grabbed a total of 31 rebounds. While Detroit’s Isaiah Stewart outplayed him, the veteran center’s double-double will please those who have him rostered. Vučević’s fantasy ceiling may be limited, but he still offers a high floor. The lingering question is whether he’ll be on the move before the February trade deadline.

The Bulls did not have Coby White or Josh Giddey for Wednesday’s game, and that usually results in a higher ceiling for Dosunmu. He didn’t start against Detroit, but the reserve guard shot 66.7 percent from the field and led the way offensively for Chicago. Rostered in 23 percent of Yahoo! leagues, he has been a top-100 player over the past two weeks. Dosunmu is worth holding onto until the Bulls’ perimeter rotation returns to full strength.

Buzelis has now scored at least 20 points in three of his last four games. However, recent injuries to Josh Giddey and Coby White have not resulted in the forward having a higher fantasy ceiling.

White played on Monday after missing the last three games for Chicago, but he will miss the first leg of this back-to-back, meaning he should be available to take on the Heat on Thursday. White played 25 minutes off the bench in that game, so Tre Jones should see a bump in minutes with White out.

Buzelis was upgraded from questionable to probable earlier Wednesday, so the most recent status upgrade was expected.

It was a tale of two halves for Simons on Monday. He had no points in the first half, but dropped 27 points with eight three-pointers in the second half of the win over the Bulls. The 26-year-old shooting guard is averaging 13.1 points per game this year, but he’s scored at least 20 points in two of his last four games.

Brown’s magnum opus featured an extremely efficient shooting performance as he knocked down 18-of-26 attempts, including 6-of-10 from beyond the arc, finishing at nearly 70 percent from the floor. It was his second 50-point effort, matching his previous career-high mark set back on January 2, 2022. The 29-year-old franchise cornerstone combined with teammate Derrick White for 24 first-quarter points as Boston erupted for a season-high 42 points in the opening stanza and simply never looked back. It was a sublime all-around performance as Brown also locked up Clippers star Kawhi Leonard on the defensive end of the floor. He’s scored at least 29 points in 11 of his last 12 games since December 2. Unreal. The Celtics return home next week for a four-game slate that includes matchups against the Bulls, Nuggets, Raptors and Spurs.

Jaylen Brown’s 50-point explosion will grab most of the headlines in this one-sided affair, but White remains the unheralded straw that stirs the metaphorical drink on both ends of the floor. The 31-year-old guard, who ranks second in the league in “stocks” (steals and blocks), added three more to the ledger while defending Clippers superstars Kawhi Leonard and James Harden, who were held to fewer than 25 points each.

On the heels of a seven-block performance against the Jazz, White was much quieter as a shot blocker on Thursday. Still, he accumulated four stocks on the defensive end to go along with his team-high in assists and his second consecutive game with at least 15 points.

Despite not shooting well from beyond the arc, Brown nearly found his way to the 30-point mark. He flourished inside the arc and additionally hit the glass hard to tally a double-double.

Still, he finished with another strong line in what’s been a successful season for him as the clear No. 1 option in Boston.

This was just Simons’ fifth 20-point game of the season, which comes one year after he averaged nearly 20 points per game. Simons has been disappointing this year after Boston acquired him in the offseason. He hasn’t been as effective as a scorer as he had been in Portland.

Not only did White lead Boston in scoring in the win, but he made a tremendous impact on the defensive end. One of the best shot-blocking guards in recent history set a new career high for blocked shots in the win. Despite still shooting just below 40 percent over the course of the season, White now ranks inside the top-25 in nine-category leagues this year. He has been even better as of late and has been one of the best players in fantasy basketball over the past few weeks.
