With Kemba Walker, Jaylen Brown, and Robert Williams out tonight, the Celtics will its sixth different starting lineup in as many games. Tristan Thompson most likely starts in Williams’ place.
Without Walker, Stevens has a decision to make: does he slide Marcus Smart into the primary ball handler role like he did against the Suns--starting Romeo Langford at the 2/3--or does Payton Pritchard start alongside Smart? Pritchard has crashed through the rookie wall over the last six games, hitting 16 of his last 31 threes.
