Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown Expected to Play Sunday vs. Nuggets

Tatum and Brown are both officially questionable for Sunday’s matinee vs. the Nuggets, but head coach Brad Stevens said he expects both players to be in the lineup. Tatum is currently dealing with an illness, while Brown is suffering from a knee injury. The Celtics are still without Evan Fournier due to health and safety protocols, so both players being in the lineup is obviously a good thing.

If either player is surprisingly ruled out, look for Grant Williams or Tristan Thompson to move into the starting lineup. Kemba Walker would also be asked to carry some additional offensive responsibilities, which would make him an interesting option on FanDuel.
