Celtics' Sam Hauser: Cleared for Opening Night
Hauser (rest) isn't listed on the injury report for Tuesday's game against the Knicks, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.
As expected, Hauser will be good to go for the regular-season opener after resting during the preseason finale. The sharpshooter was a key piece of Boston's bench last year, making 42.4 percent of his 5.9 three-point attempts per game.

Celtics' Jrue Holiday: Good to go for Opening Night
Holiday (rest) isn't listed on the injury report for Tuesday's game against the Knicks, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.
As expected, Holiday will be good to go for the regular-season opener after resting during the preseason finale. The veteran guard took a step back statistically during his first season in Boston last year, but his steady contributions were a key reason why the Celtics hoisted banner 18.

Celtics' Lonnie Walker: Parting ways with Boston
The Celtics are waiving Walker on Saturday, Bobby Marks of ESPN.com reports.
Walker was unable to secure a regular-season roster spot with Boston despite impressing in the preseason. The 25-year-old forward will likely spend the 2024-25 campaign with the Maine Celtics of the G League unless he is able to find another NBA suitor.

Celtics' Hason Ward: Inks deal with Boston
Ward signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Celtics on Wednesday, Jay King of The Athletic reports.
The move gives Boston Ward's G League rights, which is where the undrafted rookie will likely spend most of his 2024-25 campaign. Ward averaged 6.0 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.2 blocks and 1.1 steals across 15.8 minutes per game last season with Iowa State.

Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Drains five threes Tuesday
Pritchard scored 15 points (5-11 FG, 5-10 3Pt) while adding three rebounds, two assists and two steals in 29 minutes during Tuesday's 119-118 preseason loss to the Raptors.
Getting the start in place of Jrue Holiday (rest), Pritchard put on an impressive display from long range. The fifth-year guard will be the floor leader for Boston's second unit this season, with his primary fantasy value coming from beyond the arc -- Pritchard averaged a career-high 1.8 threes per game in 2023-24 on 38.5 percent shooting.

Celtics' Derrick White: Hits for 23 in preseason loss
White scored 23 points (7-20 FG, 5-14 3Pt, 4-4 FT) while adding three assists, three blocks, two rebounds and a steal in 31 minutes during Tuesday's 119-118 preseason loss to the Raptors.
It was a big night at both ends of the court for the 30-year-old guard, as the Celtics gave some of their regulars a normal workload for the first time this preseason. White is coming off a career-best 2023-24 campaign that included 2.2 steals plus blocks per game in the regular season, and he figures to be a key piece in Boston's title defense this season.

Celtics' Jayson Tatum: Drops team-high 24 points Tuesday
Tatum scored 24 points (9-22 FG, 5-14 3Pt, 1-2 FT) while adding seven rebounds, six assists and three steals in 34 minutes during Tuesday's 119-118 preseason loss to the Raptors.
Seeing a full workload for the first time this preseason, Tatum led the Celtics in scoring while delivering a strong overall performance. The five-time All-Star has averaged better than 26.0 points, 8.0 boards, 4.0 assists and 3.0 threes in each of the last three seasons, and there's no reason to expect a decline from the 26-year-old in 2024-25.

Celtics' Al Horford: Starting in preseason debut
Horford will enter the starting five in Tuesday's preseason matchup against the Raptors, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Horford missed the majority of the preseason due to rest purposes, though he will replace Neemias Queta in the starting five Tuesday. Luke Kornet has been a mainstay in the preseason starting lineup, but Horford's return will push Queta and Kornet back to the bench.

Payton Pritchard will step into the starting five alongside Derrick White, leaving Holiday to come off the bench. With Tuesday being the club's last preseason game, it would come as a surprise if Holiday does not play at all, though it remains a possibility that he gets the day off.
