Tatum was initially questionable for Wednesday's game but has been officially ruled out. With the Celtics otherwise healthy, Al Horford should slot into the starting lineup alongside Derrick White, Jrue Holiday, Jaylen Brown, and Kristaps Porzingis. Horford is worth streaming while Tatum is unavailable.
Payton Pritchard is enjoying the best season of his career, but will it be enough to win Sixth Man of the Year? Jrue Holiday definitely thinks so.
While Hauser played in Sunday's win over the Trail Blazers, hitting eight three-pointers and scoring 24 points, Brown has missed Boston's last three games. Jayson Tatum, Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis are all available for Monday night, and their presence in the lineup will account for Brown's absence if he's unable to play. If Hauser can play, he may remain in the starting lineup.
Porzingis and Holiday are available after sitting out Sunday's win over the Trail Blazers. The former will slide into the spot in the starting lineup left vacant by Al Horford, who is unavailable. As for Holiday, his return will likely push Payton Pritchard to the bench. Pritchard is a player who fantasy managers in standard leagues should continue to roster, even if he comes off the bench.
Holiday (shoulder) isn't listed on Boston's injury report for Monday's game against the Kings, Jay King of The Athletic reports.
