Payton Pritchard

BOS Guard #11

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Payton Pritchard had 11 points (4-of-12 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), three rebounds, five assists, two steals and one three-pointer against the Pacers on Monday.

Pritchard dropped 33 points in the win over the Raptors on Saturday, but his scoring came back down to earth against the Pacers on Monday. The 27-year-old point guard had 11 points and has now scored 12 or fewer points in four of his last five games. The Celtics have a rematch with the Pacers on Friday.
Derrick White

BOS Guard #9

Derrick White had 19 points (7-of-16 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), five rebounds, four assists, one block and four three-pointers against the Pacers on Monday.

White had 33 points in Friday’s win over the Heat, but has now scored 34 points over two games since then. The 31-year-old point guard contributes in the other categories as well, though. White is averaging 5.3 assists this month and also has seven blocks over his last four games.
Jaylen Brown

BOS Guard-Forward #7

Jaylen Brown had 31 points (11-of-25 FGs, 7-of-8 FTs), nine rebounds, two assists, one steal, two blocks and two three-pointers in the Celtics’ 103-95 victory over the Pacers on Monday.

Brown continued his streak of 30-point games Monday. The 29-year-old small forward now has at least 30 points in seven consecutive games and 10 of his last 11 games. Brown is clearly the Celtics’ top scoring option with Jayson Tatum (Achilles) sidelined and remains a top fantasy option.
Josh Minott

BOS Forward #8

Derrick White, Payton Pritchard, Jaylen Brown, Josh Minott and Neemias Queta will start Monday’s game against the Pacers.

While Brown has been cleared to return from the illness that sidelined him on Saturday, the Celtics will be down a starter. Jordan Walsh is out due to illness, and Minott has been tabbed to fill the void. Sam Hauser, who started for Brown the last time out, will come off the bench.
Jordan Walsh

BOS Guard #27

According to the Boston Celtics official X.com account, Jordan Walsh (illness) is out for Monday’s matchup with the Pacers.

Walsh logged only 13 minutes on Saturday against Toronto, and he’ll be forced to miss at least one contest due to an illness. In his absence, Hugo González could see an expanded role.
Jaylen Brown

BOS Guard-Forward #7

Jaylen Brown (illness) is available for Monday’s matchup with the Pacers.

Brown sat out Saturday against Toronto, but he’ll return following a one-game absence. Brown’s return should send Sam Hauser back to the bench after Hauser filled in for Brown on Saturday.
Jordan Walsh

BOS Guard #27

Jordan Walsh (illness) is questionable for Monday’s game against the Pacers.

Walsh was under the weather during Saturday’s win over the Raptors, playing just 13 minutes. Rookie Hugo González played 28 minutes off the bench, and he could be in line for an expanded workload if Walsh is either limited or cannot play on Monday.
Jaylen Brown

BOS Guard-Forward #7

Jaylen Brown (illness) is questionable for Monday’s game against the Pacers.

Brown did not play in Saturday’s win over the Raptors, opening up a spot in the starting lineup for Sam Merrill. However, Payton Pritchard benefited the most from Brown’s absence, as he dropped 33 points. Hauser would remain in the starting lineup if Brown can’t return on Monday.
Payton Pritchard

BOS Guard #11

Payton Pritchard exploded for 33 points (13-of-24 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), seven rebounds and 10 assists over 37 minutes on Saturday, propelling the Celtics to a 112-96 win over the Raptors.

Pritchard shouldered the loin share of the scoring workload with franchise cornerstone Jaylen Brown sitting out due to illness, hoisting a team-high 24 shots and knocking down 4-of-9 from three-point range. The 27-year-old sharpshooter eclipsed the 30-point plateau for the first time since going off for a season-high 42 points back on November 30. He’s averaging 16 points, 4.8 rebounds and 6.4 assists over the past two weeks, delivering sixth-round fantasy value during that span. The Celtics are back in action on Monday when they host the floundering Pacers.
Hugo González

BOS Guard #28

Hugo González amassed 10 points (5-of-9 FGs, 4-of-6 FTs), 10 rebounds, two assists and one block over 27 minutes during Saturday’s win over the Raptors.

González remains a work in progress on the offensive end of the floor, but he’s showed that he can defend at a near-elite level in spurts off the bench as a 19-year-old rookie. He got hot in this one, pulling down a season-high 10 rebounds to notch his first career double-double. He’s experienced a significant uptick in minutes recently, playing at least 15 minutes in six of Boston’s last eight contests since December 2. He doesn’t offer enough scoring potential to merit consideration outside of extremely deep leagues but he’s certainly a player on the rise to monitor over the next few months.
