Payton Pritchard exits game vs Bucks: injury update
BOSTON — Payton Pritchard exited in the third quarter of Tuesday’s game against Milwaukee with a right eye abrasion.
Pritchard had tallied 10 points and 5 rebounds in 18 minutes off the bench. The 28-year-old guard was previously listed as questionable to play with a right shoulder contusion, but was upgraded to available before tip-off. The Celtics outscored the Bucks by 7 points in his minutes.
The Celtics were otherwise fully healthy on Wednesday night. Jayson Tatum, however, missed his first game of the season to rest. Two-way player Devin Carter remains sidelined as he recovers from an illness he contracted during the preseason.
