Malcolm Brogdon (hamstring) probable for Boston on Friday
Boston Celtics shooting guard Malcolm Brogdon (right hamstring tightness) is probable for Friday versus the New Orleans Pelicans.
What It Means:
Marcus Smart (ankle) is questionable after missing last game, so Brogdon will help provide some reinforcement in the backcourt if Smart sits out again. Brogdon missed the past four contests. Derrick White and Payton Pritchard will lose some minutes once Brogdon and Smart are both healthy.
numberFire's models project Brogdon for 23.0 minutes and 23.5 FanDuel points on Friday.
