The Celtics won’t have Jaylen Brown for Tuesday’s game, as he is dealing with a right knee contusion. His absence opens up a spot in the starting lineup, with Harper filling the void. At best, he’s worth a look in deeper redraft leagues.

With Jaylen Brown out due to injury and Anfernee Simons traded, the Celtics called on Harper to move into the starting lineup. Making the first start of his four-year NBA career, Harper was effective as a scorer and rebounder while also taking on the assignment of guarding Kevin Durant for lengthy stretches. Wednesday’s game doesn’t affect his standing in redraft leagues, but Harper may have earned himself another opportunity the next time the Celtics are shorthanded.

The Celtics are without Jaylen Brown and Sam Hauser for Wednesday’s game, opening up two spots in the starting lineup. However, Payton Pritchard will remain in the bench role he held in Tuesday’s win over the Mavericks. Harper and Garza are the new starters, with the former making his first start in four NBA seasons. Of the two, Garza is the safer streaming option.

Harper Jr. landed a training camp deal with Boston in August, and his strong preseason play has earned him a spot on the team’s final 15-man roster. With Jayson Tatum out for most if not all of the year and Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis playing for new teams, Harper Jr. has a realistic chance to earn meaningful rotation minutes at some point this season.
