The Celtics will play 8 against the Heat

Edit: The Celtics have just announced that 9 of their players will be out tonight. Jaylen Brown, Javonte Green and Semi Ojeleye, who were uncertain, are also out.

There will therefore only be 8 players in uniform.

  • Marcus Smart
  • Jeff Teague
  • Payton Pritchard
  • Carsen Edwards
  • Tremont Waters
  • Aaron Nesmith
  • Daniel Theis
  • Tacko Fall

We could well tonight with a situation similar to that of the Sixers yesterday for the Boston Celtics. C’s play Miami, but with positive COVID-19 controls Jayson Tatum yesterday, and that of Robert Williams the day before yesterday, and the various contact cases, Boston should have very few players available. Enough to play?

Robert Williams and Jayson Tatum are therefore out, just like Grant Williams and Tristan Thompson, which are contact cases. We must add to that Romeo Langford (wrist) and Kemba Walker (knee), who are injured. Then Boston lists mostly Jaylen Brown, Javonte Green et Semi Ojeleye uncertain.

Boston still has a little leeway, because even if these 3 uncertain players are finally out, in theory they will have enough players: 8.

  • Marcus Smart
  • Jeff Teague
  • Payton Pritchard
  • Carsen Edwards
  • Tremont Waters
  • Aaron Nesmith
  • Daniel Theis
  • Tacko Fall

But we are not yet safe from certain Celtics being considered as contact cases of Tatum …

As it stands, however, that should be sufficient, but of course, it will distort the situation …

Meet at 1am.
