Walsh won't start Game 1 of the opening-round series against the Heat on Sunday.
With Boston resting its usual starters, Walsh made his first career NBA start during the regular-season finale and posted one point (0-2 FG), three rebounds, two steals and an assist in 17 minutes during a win over Washington. The rookie spent most of the season in the G League and isn't expected to be part of the Celtics' postseason rotation.

Celtics' Jordan Walsh: Drafted by Boston in second round
Rotowire
Walsh was selected by the Kings with the 38th overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft and subsequently traded to the Celtics in exchange for Colby Jones.
Walsh spent just one season in the collegiate ranks and averaged 7.1 points, 3.9 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 24.4 minutes per game at Arkansas. The 19-year-old is an athletic defender with plenty of length, but he could require some time to develop before he sees consistent minutes at the professional level.
