Latest Celtics News
Nikola Vucevic : Doesn’t see floor in Game 7
Vucevic did not see the floor in Saturday's Game 7 loss to the 76ers. Vucevic had played 19.0 minutes per contest in the previous six games of this series, but the Celtics completely went away from the veteran Saturday. Following his trade from Chicago, Vucevic made 16 regular-season appearances for the Celtics and averaged 9.7 points, 6.6 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 21.1 minutes per contest. The center is now set to hit the open market as a free agent.
Sam Hauser : Notches 11 points off bench
Hauser closed Saturday's 109-100 loss to the 76ers in Game 7 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs with 11 points (4-7 FG, 3-6 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist over 30 minutes. The Celtics inexplicably brought Neemias Queta and Hauser off the bench in favor of Ron Harper and Luka Garza, but the experiment did not last long with Harper and Garza combining for 13 total minutes. Hauser closed the 2025-26 regular season with 78 appearances and averages of 9.2 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 2.5 three-pointers in 24.8 minutes per contest.
Hugo Gonzalez : Logs 13 minutes in Game 7
Gonzalez recorded zero points (0-3 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 0-2 FT) and three rebounds across 13 minutes during Saturday's 109-100 loss to the 76ers in Game 7 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. With Jayson Tatum (knee) out, Gonzalez logged 13 minutes, his most of the series. However, the 20-year-old couldn't take advantage of his extra playing time by failing to register a point. Gonzalez had some flashes of production throughout his inaugural NBA season, although he still went on to average only 3.9 points, 3.3 rebounds, 0.5 assists, 0.3 blocks and 0.6 steals across 14.6 minutes in 74 regular-season contests. While he might see more action next season, he isn't expected to be productive enough to benefit fantasy managers, at least not consistently.
Jordan Walsh : Quiet in loss to Philadelphia
Walsh logged zero points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt) across five minutes during Saturday's 109-100 loss to Philadelphia in Game 7 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Despite the absence of Jayson Tatum (knee), Walsh didn't benefit. In fact, he logged a series-low five minutes while going without a point. Although the 2025-26 campaign didn't work out exactly as the team had hoped, Walsh at least saw his production improve, as he averaged a career-best 5.4 points, 4.0 rebounds, 0.8 assists, 0.5 blocks and 0.7 steals across 17.8 minutes in 68 regular-season appearances (25 starts). While Walsh should hold a stable role in the rotation for the Celtics next season, assuming he remains on the roster, he may have trouble being consistently productive as long as the starters stay healthy.
Payton Pritchard : Struggles from deep once again
Pritchard racked up 13 points (5-13 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, seven assists and one steal across 39 minutes during Saturday's 109-100 loss to Philadelphia in Game 7 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Pritchard logged 39 minutes in Game 7, his most of the series. Although the 28-year-old was productive, he once again struggled from three-point range. With Boston now eliminated from the playoffs, the Celtics may need to make some adjustments in order to remain competitive moving ahead. Pritchard, who has a couple of years left on his current contract, is coming off a solid 2025-26 campaign, averaging a career-best 17.0 points, 3.9 rebounds and 5.2 assists across 32.4 minutes in 79 regular-season appearances. Unless the Celtics receive a substantial offer, it's hard to imagine the team parting ways with the 2025 Sixth Man of the Year. Still, Pritchard might benefit from a change of scenery if he can carve out a stable role as a starter for a new club.
Derrick White : Too little, too late in loss
White recorded 26 points (9-26 FG, 5-16 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, four assists and three blocks in 45 minutes during Saturday's 109-100 loss to Philadelphia in Game 7 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. White had easily his most productive game of the postseason, albeit in a losing effort. Despite continuing to struggle with his shot, he scored at least 20 points for the first time in the playoffs and for the first time since mid-March. Saturday's Game 7 loss brings down the curtain on a disappointing end to the season for the Celtics, who had a 3-1 series lead. Across 77 regular-season appearances, White averaged 16.5 points, 5.4 assists, 4.4 rebounds and 2.4 combined steals-plus-blocks in 34.1 minutes per tilt.
Neemias Queta : Double-doubles off bench
Queta posted 17 points (7-8 FG, 3-3 FT), 12 rebounds and one assist over 33 minutes during Saturday's 109-100 loss to the 76ers in Game 7 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Queta moved back to the bench, although he still managed to log a series-high 33 minutes. While it was a breakout season for the big man, he was outplayed by Joel Embiid over the final four games of the series, when Embiid averaged 28.0 points and 9.0 rebounds. Looking ahead, Boston has some decisions to make regarding its frontcourt. Queta is seemingly the leading option at center, but that could change if the organization opts to go in another direction. He put up several career-high numbers in the regular season, during which he averaged 10.2 points, 8.4 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 1.3 blocks and 0.8 steals in 25.3 minutes per game across 76 outings (75 starts).
Luka Garza : Goes scoreless in spot start
Garza produced zero points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt) and one block in nine minutes during Saturday's 109-100 loss to the 76ers in Game 7 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Garza was elevated into the starting lineup, presumably to deal with the size of Joel Embiid. Although it may have made sense on the surface, Garza was simply no match for Embiid on either end of the floor and ended up playing just nine minutes. The Game 7 loss closes out what was an indifferent season for Garza. While he was mostly a part of the rotation, his role fluctuated and his playing time was typically reliant on the availability of either Neemias Queta or Nikola Vucevic. Across 69 regular-season appearances (six starts), Garza averaged 8.1 points, 4.1 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 16.2 minutes per contest.
