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.

Poeltl has not appeared in a game since December 21, and it’s unknown when that will change. With that being the case, now is a good time to add Collin Murray-Boyles if he’s sitting on the waiver wire. Sandro Mamukelashvili is another suitable option, but he does not offer CMB’s ceiling in category leagues.

Barnes is back after a one-game absence. Sandro Mamukelashvili replaced him in the starting lineup, but the Raptors could choose to start both since RJ Barrett and Brandon Ingram are out. Even if he comes off the bench, Mamu will play quality minutes.

Hauser was a late scratch for Saturday’s loss to the Spurs, resulting in Hugo González starting and Jordan Walsh’s minutes matching those of Victor Wembanyama. If Hauser can’t play on Monday, the Celtics will stick with a rotation of González and Walsh.

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.

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.

Quickley has shouldered more of the offensive workload for the injury-plagued Raptors, who were without a trio of key contributors in this one with Scottie Barnes (knee), Brandon Ingram (thumb) and Jakob Poeltl (back) all on the shelf. They also lost RJ Barrett to an apparent left ankle injury during the late stages of the fourth quarter. The speedy 26-year-old guard dished out a season-high 13 helpers but it still wasn’t enough. He should see an uptick in creation opportunities and three-point attempts with Barnes, Ingram and Barret out of the mix, which provides a short-term boost to his fantasy appeal. The Raptors are back in action with back-to-back contests against the 76ers starting on Sunday night.

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.

The absence of several key contributors due to injuries should lead to increased touches and creation possessions for Walter moving forward, which provides an immediate boost to his fantasy profile. The 21-year-old lacks significant scoring upside on a consistent basis, but the opportunities are there on a short-term basis with RJ Barrett (ankle), Scottie Barnes (knee), Brandon Ingram (thumb) and Jakob Poeltl (back) all dealing with injuries. He’s worthy of a speculative roster spot in deeper fantasy leagues.

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.

Barrett injured his left ankle during the fourth quarter of Friday’s game and was ruled out late in the period. He finished with 19 points (6-of-15 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), four rebounds, seven assists and three three-pointers. More will be learned about the severity of Barrett’s injury on Saturday, and the Raptors were without Brandon Ingram and Scottie Barnes for Friday’s game.

An early exit from Brandon Ingram (thumb) resulted in Barrett leading the way offensively for the Raptors. He fell one point shy of matching his season high for scoring, which he set four days prior to this game. Barrett’s production has been up and down since he returned from a 15-game absence due to a knee injury. However, he was able to step up on offense in this game, which certainly didn’t hurt for fantasy managers. Still, his fantasy impact will continue to be limited due to his lack of production in other categories.

Though CMB didn’t do much scoring, he was able to dominate the glass for Toronto. He set a new career high for boards, which came two days after the best performance of his young career. CMB should continue to start, at least until Jakob Poeltl returns. His production may come inconsistently, but he continues to show that he holds enough value to be worth rostering in standard leagues.

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.

Quickly has been an inconsistent producer for Toronto for most of the season, and this recent stretch is no exception. He has scored at least 20 points in four of his last seven games, but also has a four-point dud mixed in. However, the highlight of this game for him wasn’t in the box score. Quickley hit a three-pointer at the buzzer to give the Raptors their third straight win. Next up on the schedule is an outing in Boston on Friday.

The rookie got a second straight start and ended up having the best performance of his young career. This was what Toronto envisioned when they drafted him. The combination of passing and defensive production was fantastic for both the Raptors and fantasy managers alike. Developing a shot from deep is important, but he was able to figure out ways to score in this one. Jakob Poeltl (back) is getting closer to returning, but as long as CMB is starting, he has enough upside to be worth streaming.

Barnes fell short of a triple-double, but he was able to turn in a strong stat line in the win over Atlanta. This was the third time in his last five games that Barnes has finished with at least 10 assists. It has been an excellent season for Barnes, which has been highlighted by a major leap in efficiency. That held true in this one, as he shot at least 50 percent for a third straight game. He’ll look to keep it going in Charlotte on Wednesday.

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. Still, his scoring has fallen off since averaging 19.3 points per game last year. Simons isn’t going to be fantasy relevant without more consistent scoring.

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.
