The Celtics could be without two starters and three rotation players on Monday night as they host the Utah Jazz at TD Garden. Boston is expected to be without Kristaps Porzingis for the sixth straight game after he was listed as doubtful due to illness. The team upgraded him to questionable before Saturday’s win versus the Lakers before ruling him out so the doubtful designation is a downgrade for the big man who has missed six of his last seven games overall.
Jayson Tatum (left knee tendiopathy) and Al Horford (toe sprain) are both listed as questionable for the matchup. Tatum is coming off playing 45 minutes in the Celtics’ win over the Lakers on Saturday night while Horford played 37 minutes in the victory, two very high totals for a regular season matchup. Tatum hinted after the win he could be getting some rest in the weeks to come.
