Tim Bontemps: The Celtics officially rule out Jayson Tatum (along with Jaylen Brown and Marcus Smart) for tonight in Milwaukee. Malcolm Brogdon and Grant Williams are officially available, and Al Horford and Robert Williams are questionable. It’s possible Boston’s entire starting 5 sits out.

Some may say MJ vs. Dominque or the 1999 Vince Carter dunking extravaganza were better, but to us the 2016 Zach LaVine vs. Aaron Gordon duel qualifies easily as the best dunk contest in NBA All-Star Weekend history.

Kellan Olson: Devin Booker: “We were probably the laughing stock of the NBA about 4-5 years ago and just turning that around to something serious, to championships contenders, is a quick turnaround for us. We take a lot of pride in what we’ve built here. For this to be a destination that Kev wanted to come to is a big sign of that, to show respect of what we’ve done so far. We still have more to do but we’re moving in the right direction.”

League sources say that Durant told the Nets shortly after Irving’s abrupt departure that he wanted to be traded immediately to Phoenix if a deal could be struck — but without the public knowing that he had requested a trade for the second time in eight months.

Yet rumbles persist that various teams are monitoring the situation and curious about Williams’ future there. Williams is poised to become a restricted free agent this summer and said to be seeking a contract in the Keldon Johnson-in-San Antonio, $20-million-annually range.
