Pascal Siakam gets All-Star berth vacated due to Kevin Durant injury. Jimmy Butler apparently prefers a week of vacation. Butler could face similar request if Jaylen Brown slot has to be filled. – 1:26 PM

Jaylen Brown is obviously out tomorrow and will be for a bit. Smart remains out
Al Horford and Robert Williams are probable.
Jayson Tatum is questionable with a non-Covid illness – 5:04 PM

A lot of people view Cam Johnson as a “young player,” but he’ll be 27 years old in three weeks.
Johnson is older than Jaylen Brown, Domantas Sabonis and Donovan Mitchell. And he’s almost the exact same age as D’Angelo Russell and Kevon Looney. pic.twitter.com/YoWOl0iBGe – 11:42 AM

Down four starters, Celtics take down surging Sixers. Was it the most satisfying win of the season?

Smart was out. Horford and Robert Williams joined him. Jaylen Brown did too, suffering a facial fracture during the second quarter.
Down four starters, the Celtics beat a good 76ers team. Then Kevin Durant was traded.

With Kevin Durant and Jaylen Brown to miss the All-Star Game it might be hard for Jimmy Butler to get his preference of a vacation elsewhere. Other options would be James Harden, Pascal Siakam, maybe Jalen Brunson. – 12:18 AM

Re: Jaylen Brown: Recovery from facial fractures often varies due to various factors including the involved bone(s), possible displacement, size of the break, & any soft tissue or possible eye damage. Surgery may be needed if the damage is significant & bone(s) has displaced. – 11:21 PM

Celtics without Al Horford, Marcus Smart and Rob Williams — and with Jaylen Brown playing 18 minutes before injury — defeat 76ers, 106-99.
Perhaps more interesting aspect was winning on a night when Jayson Tatum was SIXTH among Celtics in double figures. Defense and depth. – 10:05 PM

In regards to a KD trade, I’d cross off the Celtics and Jaylen Brown.
Seems many forgot Brown called out Joe Tsai multiple times and insinuated some things about the Nets owner during Kyrie’s suspension.
