Boston Celtics guard Avery Bradley (illness) will play on Monday against the New Orleans Pelicans.
Producing as one of the best shooters in the league so far this season, Bradley should be in all lineups and will receive a modest boost in minutes with R.J. Hunter (heel) sidelined against the Pelicans.
Bradley has really improved his 3-point stroke this season, making 2.6 deep shots a game at a 44.2 percent clip. Among players with at least 100 three-point attempts, his shooting percentage is behind only Stephen Curry and Paul George for the year. His 58.1 true shooting percentage is a career high, as are his 16.4 points per game. Bradley has a 4.1 nERD on the season and we expect him to have 14.5 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.2 steals against the Pelicans tonight, while making 2.4 threes as well.
