Via Zack Cox of The Boston Herald on Sunday: "Celtics could be very shorthanded tomorrow night in Miami. They ruled out Jrue Holiday and Torrey Craig and listed Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown as questionable for their penultimate game before the All-Star break."

The Celtics are fresh off a 131-104 victory over the Knicks (in New York City).

Tatum exploded for 40 points, six rebounds and four assists while shooting 13/26 from the field and 7/14 from the three-point range in 37 minutes of playing time.

The Celtics are the second seed in the Eastern Conferene with a 37-16 record in 53 games.

After the Heat, they will return home to host the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday night in Boston.
