Celtics injury report: 3 starters for the game on Sunday against Nuggets

The Celtics could be without three starters on Sunday afternoon because they align the Denver Nuggets in the TD Garden. Jaylen Brown is back in the team’s injury report after scoring 37 points against the Cavaliers on Friday. He is classified as questionable with the right knee cast. Brown also missed the defeat on Wednesday against the pistons with thigh pain.

Jrue Holiday (right handmeal finger) and Kristaps Porzingis (not Covid disease) will probably also miss their second game in a row. They are both listed as doubtful for the matchup. The vacation suffered his injury to the defeat on Wednesday against the pistons and was denoted daily by Joe Mazzulla. Porzingis has had to do with his illness for almost a week, even though he goes through the pistons during the defeat on Wednesday.

The nuggets will come to the city in a long road trip. Peyton Watson (knee immersion) was explained, while Aaron Gordon (ankle -resuscitation) and Zeke Nnaji (ankle resilience) are both questionable.

The Celtics will try to sweep the season series in the Matchup after winning in a night in January in which the Nuggets played in Denver due to illness without Nikola Jokic.

Boston had Neemias Queta, Xavier Tillman and Jordan Walsh practiced with the Maine Celtics on Saturday to prepare for the reserves to see the potential season on Sunday when Boston is without three starters. Joe Mazzulla held on Friday evening for the entire second half with a defeat of 123-116 against the Cleveland Cavaliers on a seven-member rotation. This trend will not be sustainable for people like Al Horford (38 minutes) and Sam Hauser (38 minutes) on Friday evening.

The Celtics and Nuggets will tip over on ABC on Sunday at 1 p.m. in a Matchup broadcast nationwide on television.
