Boston Celtic

COMPLETE TEAM: Boston Celtics are back in action…

The Boston Celtics are back in action Friday night three days after getting eliminated by the Indiana Pacers in the 2023 NBA In-Season Tournament.

The Celtics will take on the New York Knicks at home and get back on the winning track. Let’s look at the latest Boston Celtics injury report for Dec. 8.

Boston has four players on its recent injury report – Kristaps Porzingis, JD Davison,  Is and Jordan Walsh. Porzingis is listed as probable after missing the past four games because of a strained left calf.

He participated in his first full practice on Wednesday and will likely play against the Knicks.

Davison, Knight and Walsh are all out since they are assigned to the Celtics’ G League affiliate team, the Maine Celtics.
Davison and Knight are signed to two-way contracts, while Walsh was the 38th overall pick of this year’s NBA draft.

Based on the Boston Celtics’ injury report, head coach Joe Mazzulla will finally have a healthy roster again.

That means Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, Jrue Holiday and Derrick White are all available to play against the New York Knicks.

The Celtics are still atop the Eastern Conference standings with a 15-5 record, with the Milwaukee Bucks, Orlando Magic and Philadelphia 76ers close behind.

They have an opportunity to start a winning streak since their next five games are all at the TD Garden.

They will welcome the New York Knicks on Friday, the Cavaliers on Tuesday and Thursday and the Magic on Dec. 15 and 17.
