Boston Celtics vs. Cleveland Cavaliers: Injuries and likely starting lineups

The Boston Celtics have had the benefit of a mostly healthy injury report over the last several games. But after their historic blowout of the Golden State Warriors and recent win over the Dallas Mavericks, some dings have put some Boston players on the injury report.

The Celtics have listed both Jaylen Brown and Kristaps Porzingis as questionable for Boston’s tilt with the Cleveland Cavaliers on Tuesday. Brown is dealing with a contused knee from the Dubs win, and KP, a left quad contusion suffered against the Mavs. Two way big man Neemias Queta will miss the game with a hyperextended right knee.

The Cavs are also dealing with some important injuries, most notably Donovan Mitchell being ruled out because of a knee contusion.

They’ll also be without Ty Jerome (ankle surgery), Max Strus (knee sprain) and Tristan Thompson (suspension).

Caris LeVert (right elbow sprain) and Isaac Okoro (left elbow sprain) are listed as questionable.
