The Boston Celtics return to action on Thursday to start the second half of their 2020-21 NBA season against the Brooklyn Nets. Brooklyn will be without a key player while the Celtics will have veteran guard Marcus Smart back in the fold barring any last-minute setbacks, and the Nets will host Boston for looming collision of these two Atlantic Division foes.

The Celtics finished their first half of the season with a four-game winning streak, with starting point guard Kemba Walker rounding into form and star wings Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum looking like they needed the time off. Brooklyn trails the Philadelphia 76ers by a half-game after winning nine of their last 10.

However, the Nets figure to be without a key member of their starting five.

Only second.-year wing Romeo Langford remains out for the Celtics, now cleared to play after a long rehabilitation from surgery on a torn tendon in his wrist, but instead in the league's health and safety protocols for undisclosed reasons until further notice. For the Nets, superstar forward Kevin Durant will remain out with a hamstring injury, and newly-signed veteran big man Blake Griffin is also listed as out for left knee injury management. Point guard Spencer Dinwiddie of course remains out with a torn ACL rehabilitation, and forward Jeff Green is listed as questionable with a right shoulder contusion.
