Boston Celtics Team News
The Boston Celtics are having a challenging time as they are dealing with missing key players because of injuries.
Jayson Tatum's knee injury has kept him out of action, which hurts the team's ability to score and earn points in general. Additionally, Jrue Holiday is also out with a knee injury.
The Celtics' problems are made worse by Derrick White's ankle injury, which keeps them from having his flexibility and depth in the backcourt. Also, Al Horford is out with a toe injury, so the Celtics don't have his experienced guidance or defensive presence in the frontcourt.
As the Celtics deal with this problem, they need the rest of their team to step up and fill the gaps left by these key losses.
