González sprained his left ankle during Tuesday’s game against the 76ers. The 19-year-old guard was said to be good enough to return to the game, though he remained out. González is now probable for Wednesday’s game against the Grizzlies, which indicates the injury isn’t too severe.

Brown struggled to find his shot in the early stages of this one, going 1-of-7 from the field in the first half, but managed to get to the charity stripe for five free throws to salvage his scoring line. He came alive in the second half, sparking a 36-point third quarter for the Celtics, and finishing the second half with 17 points on 7-of-11 shooting. He drained a pair of free throws with 33.5 second left to tie the ballgame, but it was Derrick White that took the final shot for the Celtics as time expired. The 29-year-old superstar has enjoyed one of the highest usage rates in the entire league this season and is averaging nearly 28 points per-game through 12 contests, delivering eighth-round value for fantasy purposes. The Celtics are back in action on Wednesday night when they host the Grizzlies.

Wednesday’s game will be the fourth that Coulibaly has missed with a left calf contusion. Rookie Tre Johnson has been the replacement in the starting lineup, and he’s worth a look in deep leagues. Johnson will be most valuable later in the season, especially if the Wizards were to move a veteran at the trade deadline.

Hauser was initially listed as probable, so his availability isn’t a surprise. Since starting the first two games of the season, Hauser has been in a reserve role, and his minutes have dwindled. Unless he gets the chance to start, he shouldn’t be rostered.

McCollum had scored 25 points in each of his last two games enter play Monday and then proceeded to drop 42 points on the Pistons. The 34-year-old shooting guard has made at least five three-pointers in two of his last three games. His recent scoring is a terrific sign that he’s started to turn it around after averaging 14.3 points per game so far this season.

Since it was Washington’s second game in as many nights, Middleton did not play in Saturday’s loss to the Mavericks. His return means Justin Champagnie will head back to the bench, where he isn’t worth the risk in any fantasy leagues. Johnson will make his third start as the Wizards remain without Bilal Coulibaly.

Hauser is dealing with a sprained right wrist, a potentially problematic issue since he is a right-handed shooter. However, the probable tag suggests that this isn’t a serious issue and that Hauser will play. His availability does not significantly impact fantasy basketball, especially with Josh Minott playing well as the starting power forward.

For just the second time this season, Simons recorded a 20-point game, with the 25 matching his tally in an October 27 win over New Orleans. All due respect to the Pelicans, but putting up an efficient 25 points on the Magic is a different matter. Over his last three games, Simons is shooting 19-of-37 from the field, and as a result, his season percentage is approaching 44 percent. His overall fantasy value remains low, but this three-game stretch was much-needed for Simons as he looks to establish himself in Boston. The Celtics begin a three-game Week 4 in Philadelphia on Tuesday.

Regardless of how many points he scores, White consistently provides fantasy managers with excellent value. Sunday was his first game with at least 20 points since Boston’s season opener against the 76ers, and he also provided solid value in assists, steals and three-pointers. White is providing top-50 value in nine-cat formats, and history suggests he’s capable of being even better as the season progresses. Boston plays three games during Week 4, but only one will be played after Wednesday.

While Brown’s streak of 30-point games ended at three, he’s scored 28 or more in six of his last seven. The Celtics wing has been a better option in eight-cat formats than nine-cat for most of his career, and that has been the case this season as well. While providing eighth-round value in the latter, Brown has been four rounds better in eight-cat. The key to closing the gap is turnovers, of which JB’s averaging 3.6 per game. He had four on Sunday, which was the lone negative to his night.

Sarr came up big for Washington in this game and was able to turn in a strong line across the board. Overall this season, his rebounding has been improved, but the last two games have been rough in that department; he matched his season-low for boards in this one. Still, this has been an excellent start to Sarr’s second season in the league, and he’ll look to keep it going in Detroit on Monday.

Since scoring 14 points in the season opener, Whitmore has only scored in double figures once and hasn’t played a significant role. However, he was able to contribute off the bench in this game and set a new season-high for points. Still, outside of the buckets, he only contributed three boards. That’s it. Whitmore is a talented scorer, but until he is able to contribute in other areas, his upside and minutes will both be limited.

It was a tale of two halves for McCollum. He got off to a scorching hot start to this game, scoring 23 points in the first half alone. That came after he had a season-high 25 points on Friday. He only scored two points after the break, and he wasn’t able to help the Wizards end their losing streak. Still, this two-game stretch was great to see from McCollum after he scored a total of eight points over the two previous games.

Middleton had four points in 22 minutes in the loss to the Cavaliers on Friday, but he’ll sit out the second game of the back-to-back.

George missed Friday’s game against the Cavaliers with an illness and his questionable listing has his status up in the air for Saturday.

White was one of three Celtics starters to score at least 16 points, and his 10 assists were a season-high for the guard. Unsurprisingly, he continues to provide excellent fantasy value, ranking within the top-50 in nine-cat formats. The hope for fantasy managers is that White can pick up the scoring, as he has not recorded a 20-point game since the season-opening loss to the 76ers.

Since going through a three-game stretch in which he shot 3-of-21 from beyond the arc, Pritchard has found his stroke. Making five of his eight attempts, the Celtics guard has gone 11-of-25 from deep over the last three games, scoring at least 18 points in each. Pritchard offers limited defensive value, making his three-point production that much more critical to his fantasy value. He and the Celtics will look to even the score when they face the Magic again on Sunday.

Unsurprisingly, Sarr struggled on the glass against Cleveland’s tandem of Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen. However, the second-year center shot over 50 percent from the field and recorded four blocks, continuing to make strides on both ends of the floor. Sarr’s start to the season has been very encouraging, but there’s still room for improvement. Can he be a top-50 fantasy player for the entire season? Yes. But, for those who don’t believe in Sarr that much, now would be a good time to see what selling high can fetch on the trade market.

Having shot 3-of-19 from the field and 1-of-10 from three in his two previous games, McCollum was looking to snap out of that funk. Mission accomplished, as he shot 50 percent from the field and led the Wizards in scoring. Thirteen of his 16 shot attempts were from beyond the arc, and he has a three-point attempt rate of nearly 55 percent through nine games. When the shots are falling at a solid clip, as they were on Friday, that’s a nice deal for those who have McCollum rostered.

With Bilal Coulibaly unavailable due to injury, Johnson made his first career start on Friday. While he certainly would have preferred to do so in a win, the rookie guard had a good night on the offensive end of the floor. Johnson provided solid value in points, three-pointers and field-goal percentage, although he was just 1-of-3 from the foul line. Johnson’s value at this point in the season hinges on the availability of players like Coulibaly, but the rookie certainly has the potential to be a “silly season” standout.

The Wizards welcome Middleton back after he missed the previous two games due to injury, but Bilal Coulibaly and Kyshawn George are out.

Walsh came into November as a forgotten man in Boston’s rotation, playing just four total minutes in October. However, he played 19 minutes against the Rockets on Saturday and then was up to 24 minutes on Wednesday. These were not garbage-time minutes either, as Walsh checked into the game in the first quarter. He was a plus-27 on the night and received praise from head coach Joe Mazzulla after the game, so it’s possible that Walsh could pick up extra minutes at the expense of Hugo Gonzalez and Baylor Scheierman going forward.

For the third time this season, Simons made at least four three-pointers in a game. Field-goal percentage and assists have been the issues for him thus far, with the Celtics guard shooting 41.2 percent and averaging a career-low 1.6 assists per game. By comparison, he’s a career 43 percent shooter and averages 3.2 assists. Given the production, he probably should not be rostered in 87 percent of Yahoo! leagues.

Jaylen Brown wasn’t the only Celtic to make history during Wednesday’s rout of the Wizards. Queta became the first player in franchise history to record at least 15 points, 10 rebounds and five assists while not missing a shot from the field in a game. Rostered in 29 percent of Yahoo! leagues, he’s providing seventh-round value in nine-cat formats. What may be holding that percentage down is the playing time, as Queta has not surpassed 26 minutes in any game. He’ll be far more popular among fantasy managers if the minutes increase.

Only one of Boston’s five starters, Josh Minott, surpassed 30 minutes on Wednesday. Brown only played 26 and was outstanding, shooting well over 50 percent from the field. And he made some history, becoming the first player in Celtics history to record at least 35 points, five rebounds and five assists in less than 30 minutes of play. Brown did not play at all during the fourth quarter, getting some valuable rest ahead of Friday’s game against the Magic.

While Minott can still have bouts of inconsistency, he’s developing into a player who should be considered in more fantasy leagues. Wednesday’s performance was his best, with the forward notching a career-high point total and three steals. Minott is rostered in 15 percent of Yahoo! leagues, and, understandably, some are hesitant to buy into him fully. But the potential to have nights like Wednesday may entice some to roll the dice on him.

Making his second consecutive start for the injured Khris Middleton (knee), Champagnie hit double figures for the first time this season.

While it’s still early in the 2025-26 season, Sarr’s progress from Year 1 to Year 2 has been impressive. He was one of the few bright spots in Wednesday’s blowout loss, continuing an excellent run to begin the season. Sarr is providing top-25 value in nine-cat formats thus far, and you’d be hard-pressed to find a fantasy manager who expected this level of production. While some may be tempted to sell high, his role is such that Sarr can still provide excellent value, and he won’t be a shutdown risk on this rebuilding team.

Last season, he averaged 3.2 three-pointers per game, but this was the first game this year that he hit more than two shots from deep.

This was a solid response from Brown after he was held to just 12 points in Boston’s last game, which came after two straight 30-point outings.

Brown will continue to be the primary scoring option for Boston, and he has a favorable matchup in their next game against the Wizards on Wednesday.

Hauser replaced Josh Minott to start the second half of this game, but that didn’t lead to a good performance from either player. Hauser played 28 minutes to Minott’s 15, and it’s worth keeping an eye on to see if this is a move that will carry over into the Celtics’ game against the Wizards on Wednesday, or if this was just a result of Minott being in foul trouble again. Hauser is a good source of three-pointers, but Minott is a superior option in most other categories.

George may not be an explosive scorer, but his ability to put up numbers in various categories makes him an excellent asset in category leagues. He recorded a complete line against the Knicks, including three steals and three three-pointers, while shooting over 50 percent from the field.

Coulibaly has provided top-100 value in nine-cat formats through three games, exceeding his Yahoo! ADP of 143.

The only thing missing from his line was a three-pointer, but the second-year center has taken fewer of those shots thus far to excellent effect. Sarr is shooting 52.7 percent from the field, a significant reason why he’s providing third-round value in eight- and nine-cat formats. Based on his Yahoo!

Minott continues to provide a spark in his Celtics debut as he’s found a way to contribute across the board for fantasy purposes. He’s been a bit streaky as a shooter, but he’s done a nice job chipping in from a defense and rebounding standpoint thanks to his athleticism and motor. He’s worthy of a speculative roster spot in deeper fantasy leagues as he’ll remain a key component of the new-look Celtics’ rotation moving forward. Boston begins a four-game week with favorable home matchups against the rebuilding Jazz and Wizards before heading to Orlando for back-to-back road contests.

After falling one rebound shy of a double-double in Monday’s win over the Pelicans, his first start as a Celtic, Minott was even better on the glass against Cleveland. Not only were his 14 rebounds a career-high, but this was also the second time in his career that Minott had reached double digits in that category (February 8, 2023, with the Timberwolves). Hugo González, who was replaced in the lineup by Minott, only played three minutes on Wednesday. Only rostered in three percent of Yahoo! leagues, Minott is providing top-50 fantasy value. That may not last for the entire season, but he’s worth a look in deep leagues with the move into the starting lineup.
