Jayson Tatum (rest) won't play on Sunday against the Hornets. The C's are heading to the postseason as the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference. Fortunately, this will enable the club to rest some of their core performers, including Tatum,
Jrue Holiday (shoulder),
Jaylen Brown (knee),
Kristaps Porzingis (illness),
Al Horford (knee), and
Derrick White (neck). Without those guys on the floor,
Payton Pritchard,
Baylor Scheierman,
Sam Hauser, and
Luke Kornet are the safest options for DFS managers.

Jaylen Brown (knee) won't play on Sunday against Charlotte. The right knee injury has been an issue of late. Unfortunately, the problem may not be gone anytime soon, with ESPN's Ramona Shelburne reporting Brown received "pain management injections in an effort to promote healing." The 28-year-old struggled in Tuesday's overtime win over the Knicks, his last time on the floor, finishing with only six points in 22 minutes of work. There will likely be more updates on Brown's condition heading into the C's first-round playoff series. But fantasy managers will undoubtedly be hoping the ailment doesn't affect his ability to suit up in the playoffs as well as the start of the 2025-26 campaign.

Jaylen Brown (knee) won't play on Wednesday against Orlando. He was listed as questionable. However, it appeared he at least had a chance of playing, considering he was warming up. With that in mind, the C's have already secured the No. 2 spot in the Eastern Conference, so
Jayson Tatum (ankle),
Derrick White (ankle),
Kristaps Porzingis (illness),
Jrue Holiday (shoulder), and
Al Horford (knee) will join Brown on the shelf. As a result, it could be a busy night for
Sam Hauser,
Payton Pritchard,
Luke Kornet, and
Baylor Scheierman.

Jaylen Brown (knee) is questionable heading into Tuesday's showdown with the Knicks. This Injury has already cost him a few games. Fortunately, he was able to suit up for Sunday's blowout win over the Washington Wizards, finishing with 15 points and five assists in 21 minutes.
Al Horford (knee) has already been ruled out, and
Jayson Tatum (ankle) and
Kristaps Porzingis (illness) are questionable. As such, there are plenty of guys who can step into the starting lineup, although
Payton Pritchard,
Sam Hauser, and
Luke Kornet are the favorites to do something meaningful for fantasy managers.
