Celtics rule out Marcus Morris (knee) for Saturday
Boston Celtics forward Marcus Morris (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Indiana Pacers.
What It Means:
Morris is dealing with knee soreness, and won't even be travelling with the team on the second half of a back-to-back. Look for Jayson Tatum to see an up-tick in minutes, averaging 32.3 minutes per game with Morris out compared to 28.2 per game when he plays.
numberFire's models account for Morris returning against the Detroit Pistons on Monday, projecting him for 20.1 FanDuel points in 25.2 minutes of action in that one.
