Derrick White, who left Saturday’s sport in opposition to the Charlotte Hornets after spraining his neck, is possible for the rematch Monday afternoon.
The Celtics guard obtained the worst of an inadvertent hit from teammate Marcus Sensible early within the first quarter. He stayed on the ground for an prolonged time frame earlier than leaving and never returning.
After the Celtics’ 122-106 win, head coach Joe Mazzulla mentioned White was “doing higher” and “OK.”
White performed a key position within the Celtics’ win over Brooklyn on Thursday, scoring 15 factors and including seven rebounds in 37 minutes. He’s averaging 9.9 factors, 3.3 assists, 3.1 rebounds and 1.4 blocks per sport and is certainly one of two Celtics – together with Sam Hauser – who has performed in all 44 video games this season.
Jaylen Brown (proper adductor tightness) stays out for the Celtics, as they search for their seventh straight win.
The Celtics have three days off following Monday’s sport earlier than they host the Warriors on Thursday in an NBA Finals rematch. They then have a busy stretch of three video games in 4 nights beginning Saturday.
