I'm sure Giannis will be on some sort of minutes limit, but he's back and Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum (close, though) are both out for Boston. And it's the second of a B2B for the Celtics -- one of those one-game trips guys just despise. Now that the Freak is back, the Bucks have to start winning right away for a Play-In chance. It's doable. So rare for them this year just to have everyone available.

The Boston Celtics are choosing to rest Jaylen Brown once again in a back to back spot. This worked on the front end of the last instance against the Phoenix Suns, and also in early February against the Houston Rockets. Different scenario this time against a Milwaukee Bucks team I expect to bounce back from two embarrassing losses. They were blown out by the New York Knicks and allowed a 27 to 0 run in yesterday’s loss to the Bulls. Tail Milwaukee in a must win spot.

Caesar’s. AJ Green has cleared this points line in 16/24 games against teams that rank in the bottom half of the NBA in both catch and shoot defense and three pointers allowed. The Celtics rank 23rd and 25th, respectively, which should allow Green ample opportunity from behind the arc tonight, even if Giannis Antetokounmpo suits up. As an alternative, I’d bet over 2.5 three pointers made.
