    Lauri Markkanen (wrist) is questionable for Saturday’s game against the Trail Blazers.

    Markkanen sprained his right wrist during Monday’s loss to the Grizzlies and did not play on Wednesday against the Spurs. If he can play on Saturday, Josh Green will likely head to the bench.

    Anthony Black recorded 23 points (6-of-12 FGs, 10-of-11 FTs), eight rebounds, three assists, two steals and one three-pointer in Sunday’s loss to the Celtics.

    Black has reached double figures in three of his four games this season, and Sunday’s point total is a new season-high. The overall stat line was very good, with the Magic guard shooting high percentages from the field and the foul line and offering solid value in rebounds and steals. Black will continue to start until Paolo Banchero (ankle) returns, making him worth adding if he’s still on your league’s waiver wire.

    Desmond Bane accumulated 19 points (7-of-13 FGs), two rebounds, one assist, two steals, one block and five three-pointers in Sunday’s loss to the Celtics.

    For the second straight game, Bane made at least five three-pointers, shooting 5-of-9 against the Celtics. The Magic guard shot over 50 percent from the field on Sunday, a sign he’s warming up after a slow start. Bane is shooting 36.9 percent from the field through six games, far below his career mark of 47.3 percent. Orlando begins a three-game Week 3 on Monday against the Wizards.

    Neemias Queta produced eight points (4-of-9 FGs), nine rebounds, one assist and two blocks in Sunday’s win over the Magic.

    Mitchell Robinson (rest) did not play in the first game of Boston’s road back-to-back, so Queta started at center. While he didn’t offer much scoring, the 7-footer was effective on the glass and as a rim protector. On offense, the Celtics got solid contributions from Luka Garza, who finished with 10 points, two rebounds, one assist, and two three-pointers. Boston visits Houston on Monday, and Robinson should return to the starting lineup.

    Paul George accounted for 17 points (6-of-14 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), six rebounds, eight assists, two steals, two blocks and three three-pointers in Sunday’s win over the Magic.

    Quiet for most of the first three quarters, George came through when the Celtics needed him most on Sunday. He scored 10 of his 17 points in the final quarter, including three on a triple with 1:32 remaining that extended Boston’s lead to 11. It’s early, but George appears to be fitting in well with his new teammates. Boston plays four games next week, beginning with the Rockets on Monday.

    Derrick White tallied 12 points (4-of-8 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), two rebounds, two assists, two steals and two three-pointers in Sunday’s win over the Magic.

    White took a back seat offensively on Sunday, but he did a little bit of everything to help the Celtics end their week with a victory. After shooting a career-worst 39.4 percent from the field last season, White is up to 47.4 percent through six games. His category-league value hasn’t reached his ADP yet, but fantasy managers shouldn’t worry.

    Jayson Tatum finished Sunday’s win over the Magic with 32 points (8-of-19 FGs, 15-of-17 FTs), four rebounds, seven assists, two blocks and one three-pointer.

    Tatum didn’t have his best day shooting the basketball, but his ability to get to the foul line paid off immensely. He made 15 of his 17 free-throw attempts, the second time in three games that the Celtics’ forward has scored at least 15 points on free throws. Add in the assists and blocks, and this was a solid end to the week for those rostering Tatum. Boston plays four games next week, starting with the Rockets on Monday.

    Rudy Gobert (back) is not on the injury report for Monday’s game against the Bucks.

    Gobert is back after sitting out Saturday’s loss to the Spurs. His return means Joan Beringer will head back to the bench after starting on Saturday.

    Kyrie Irving (knee) is questionable for Monday’s game against the Kings.

    Irving has missed one game this season, the Mavericks’ October 24 loss to the Spurs. That game was part of a back-to-back, so it’s somewhat surprising to see Irving on the report for injury-management reasons. If he can’t play, Naji Marshall could replace him in the starting lineup.
