Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Starting vs. Toronto

Pritchard is starting in Friday's preseason game against the Raptors.

The Celtics will give Pritchard a look in the first unit Friday. The sharpshooter will likely open the regular season in a reserve capacity. Still, it's safe to say Pritchard will have a significant playmaking role for a Boston team that will be without Jayson Tatum (Achilles) for most of the season.
