Celtics' Jayson Tatum: Not expected to play in Game 2
Tatum (wrist) is doubtful for Game 2 of the Eastern Conference quarterfinals Wednesday against the Magic, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Tatum took a fall in Sunday's Game 1 win over Orlando, which has rendered him day-to-day with a right wrist injury. It appears likely that he'll need to sit out at least one game due to the issue. If the superstar forward is ultimately ruled out as expected, his next chance to return to the floor would come Friday for Game 3 when the series shifts to Orlando. The Celtics are set to lean on Jaylen Brown and Kristaps Porzingis as their top scoring options Wednesday, and either Sam Hauser or Al Horford is in line to jump into Boston's starting lineup.

Celtics' Jayson Tatum: Managing wrist issue
Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla said Tuesday that Tatum is dealing with a right wrist injury, which has the forward considered "day to day," Gary Washburn of The Boston Globe reports.
Tatum's nasty fall during Boston's Game 1 win against Orlando has led to the team monitoring his right wrist issue, which is reportedly a bone bruise he'll try to play through, Shams Charania of ESPN reports. In 40 minutes in the series opener, the superstar forward finished with 17 points, 14 rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block.

Celtics' Al Horford: Muted performance in win
Horford ended Sunday's 103-86 win over Orlando in Game 1 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs with five points (2-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt), five rebounds, three assists and one steal across 25 minutes.
Horford, much like teammate Kristaps Porzingis, didn't make an impact offensively in the Game 1 win against Orlando. The two veteran big men combined for 10 points Sunday, but it didn't matter, as Boston was still able to crush the Magic by 17 to take the 1-0 series lead.

Celtics' Kristaps Porzingis: Four swipes in Game 1 win
Porzingis ended Sunday's 103-86 win over Orlando in Game 1 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs with five points (1-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists, one block and four steals over 26 minutes.
Porzingis had a rough shooting night in Game 1 against Orlando, going 1-for-8 from the field. However, the veteran scorer was able to impact the game in other areas, as he recorded a game-high four steals to go along with six rebounds. Fortunately for Boston, the Celtics were able to secure a 17-point win to take a 1-0 series lead despite Porzingis' lack of production offensively.

Celtics' Jaylen Brown: Puts up 16 points in Game 1 win
Brown (knee) finished with 16 points (6-14 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, two assists and two steals across 30 minutes Sunday in the Celtics' 103-86 win over the Magic in Game 1 of the first-round playoff series.
After Brown missed the final three games of the regular season due to a right knee impingement, the Celtics monitored his playing time closely. Brown hasn't played more than 31 minutes in any of his last nine appearances, but assuming his knee checked out fine coming out of Sunday's contest, he could see his minutes count steadily increase as the series unfolds.

Celtics' Jrue Holiday: Records three steals
Holiday recorded nine points (3-6 FG, 3-4 3Pt), three rebounds, five assists and three steals in 33 minutes during Sunday's 103-86 win over the Magic in Game 1 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Just like the regular season, Holiday had a low usage rate on the offensive end while Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown and Derrick White did most of the heavy lifting offensively. Holiday is coming off an underwhelming regular season by his standards with 11.0 points, 4.3 rebounds, 3.9 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.8 three-pointers on 44.4 percent shooting from the field.

Celtics' Jayson Tatum: Double-doubles in Game 1 victory
Tatum contributed 17 points (8-22 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 0-4 FT), 14 rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal over 40 minutes during Sunday's 103-86 win over the Magic in Game 1 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Tatum recorded another double-double, helping the Celtics to a relatively comfortable Game 1 victory. Despite struggling on the offensive end, Tatum managed to chip in across the board, something he has been able to do with more consistency this season. The teams will meet again in Game 2 on Wednesday, with Boston looking to take a stranglehold on the series.

Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Pops for 19 points Sunday
Pritchard accumulated 19 points (6-8 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT) and three assists across 25 minutes during Sunday's 103-86 win over Orlando in Game 1 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Pritchard played his role to perfection, helping the Celtics to a solid workmanlike victory. It's been a banner season for Pritchard, who was also named a finalist for the Sixth Man of the Year award Sunday. Look for Pritchard to have another productive outing when the two teams meet again Wednesday.

Celtics' Derrick White: Drops 30 points in Game 1 win
White logged 30 points (10-18 FG, 7-12 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal over 36 minutes during Sunday's 103-86 victory over Orlando in Game 1 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
White was fantastic in the Game 1 victory while recording a team-high scoring figure. Both Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown were far from their best, while Kristaps Porzingis also struggled on the offensive end. White took it upon himself to shoulder the bulk of the scoring load, an indication of how much he has improved in that capacity over the past couple of years. The Celtics will look to take a 2-0 series lead when the two teams meet again in Boston on Wednesday.

Celtics' Jayson Tatum: Undergoes X-rays on wrist
X-rays on Tatum's right wrist came back clean Sunday, Zack Cox of the Boston Herald reports.
Tatum took a hard fall late in Sunday's Game 1 against the Magic and appeared to hurt his right wrist. He was able to stay in the game following the fall, but he went to the locker room before the final buzzer when both teams elected to empty their benches with the game all but decided. Tatum indicated postgame that he had X-rays done on his wrist and that those came back clean. He and head coach Joe Mazzulla have stated that his wrist is not much of a concern, so his status for Wednesday's Game 2 matchup at TD Garden doesn't seem to be in jeopardy.
