Coming off a win against the Hornets, the Celtics face the Knicks in their final road game of the regular season. Jayson Tatum is expected to play, but Jaylen Brown (left Achilles tendinitis), Sam Hauser (low back spasm), Neemias Queta (right toe sprain), and Derrick White (right knee contusion) are all questionable for the contest.
With the Celtics holding a three-game lead in the standings, a win would clinch the 2 seed in the Eastern Conference. The game is particularly important as it kicks off a back-to-back stretch that includes games against the Pelicans and Magic to close out the regular season.
