Jayson Tatum back in Celtics' lineup Wednesday after one-game absence
Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum is back in the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Charlotte Hornets.
Tatum was held out Tuesday mostly for precautionary reasons and the Celtics wound up losing to a Thunder team that had lost 14 straight games. He should see an uptick in usage with Kemba Walker (oblique) and Marcus Smart (suspension) both unavailable. Semi Ojeleye will return to the second unit after filling in with the starters.
numberFire’s models project Tatum for 42.2 FanDuel points versus the Hornets and he has a salary of $9,200 on Wednesday.
