Kyrie Irving (knee) to sit again Wednesday in Celtics' last game before break
Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving (knee) will not play on Wednesday against the Detroit Pistons.
Terry Rozier (illness) is doubtful, so the Celtics may shift Marcus Smart to point guard and open up a starting spot for Jaylen Brown. This will be Irving's second consecutive absence and the knee injury may prevent him from participating in All-Star festivities, but he should be ready to return after the break.
Kyrie is averaging 43.4 FanDuel points through 47 games, with 23.6 points, 4.9 rebounds, 6.9 assists, 1.6 steals, and 2.5 triples per contest.
