Claxton (ankle) is out for Friday's game versus the Bulls, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.
Claxton will miss his fourth consecutive game Friday due to a left ankle sprain. Royce O'Neale and Ben Simmons should continue to see extended minutes in his absence. Claxton's next chance to suit up is Saturday, but coach Jacque Vaughn said the starting center would "probably not" play versus the Celtics.
