The good news for the Celtics is that Jayson Tatum was removed from the injury report entirely after being questionable on Tuesday night with a sore ankle. He appeared to tweak the injury in the closing minutes of Tuesday’s loss to the Hawks in NBA Cup action but said after the game he was fine.

In an attempt to get back to .500, the Brooklyn Nets may be without key pieces tonight against an already-shorthanded Boston Celtics squad. The two teams met less than a week ago, but both rosters could look significantly different from their first matchup.

The Brooklyn Nets (5-6) are coming off an impressive 107-105 win at the New Orleans Pelicans on Monday in which Brooklyn almost dropped the ball in the end to a severely undermanned Pelicans squad. The Nets were also missing some key players, including forward Dorian Finney-Smith, who could be sidelined for an important game on Wednesday.
