Celtics' Ron Harper: Probable for Game 2
Harper is probable for Game 2 on Tuesday versus the 76ers due to a right ankle sprain, per Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site.
Harper is expected to be available off the Celtics' bench Tuesday. The Rutgers product played just four minutes during garbage time in Boston's Game 1 blowout win over Philadelphia, so Harper isn't likely to play meaningful minutes.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Foul trouble in Sunday's win
Queta posted 13 points (5-5 FG, 3-4 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one block over 15 minutes during the Celtics' 123-91 win over the 76ers in Game 1 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs Sunday.
Both Queta and Nikola Vucevic found themselves in foul trouble in the first half, which prompted head coach Joe Mazulla to deploy Luka Garza more than anticipated. Queta still scored in double digits despite the lack of playing time, and if he can avoid foul trouble, he could have some productive stat lines in Round 1 while going up against Andre Drummond and Adem Bona, though Queta would have his hands full on the defensive end of the floor if Joel Embiid (appendectomy) is cleared to return.

Celtics' Jaylen Brown: Productive in Game 1 victory
Brown posted 26 points (11-21 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists and two steals over 30 minutes during Boston's 123-91 win over Philadelphia in Game 1 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs Sunday.
It took a little while for Brown to get into the groove of things Sunday, but he exploded out of halftime with 16 points in the third quarter to help maintain the Celtics' comfortable lead. He finished as the game's leading scorer, which is notable given that he sat for the entire fourth quarter and attempted only two free throws. That extra rest at the end of Sunday's game should be beneficial for Brown and the rest of the Celtics' starters for Game 2 on Tuesday.

Celtics' Jayson Tatum: Full line in Game 1 win
Tatum logged 25 points (9-17 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 6-6 FT), 11 rebounds, seven assists and two steals over 32 minutes during the Celtics' 123-91 victory over the 76ers in Game 1 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs Sunday.
Tatum steered the Celtics to a 15-point first-quarter lead and logged 10 points, seven rebounds, four assists and a steal while playing all 12 minutes of the frame. He led the Celtics in both rebounds and assists and finished as the team's second-leading scorer behind Jaylen Brown (26 points). Tatum has logged 10 double-doubles in 17 games since making his return from a torn Achilles on March 6. He may not be at the same level as he was before that serious injury, but his return has given Boston a huge boost on both ends of the floor as the team gears up for another playoff run.

Celtics' Max Shulga: Back to reserve role Sunday
Shulga isn't starting in Sunday's game against Philadelphia.
Shulga made the first start of his career in the 113-108 win over Orlando to close out the regular season, finishing with three points, three boards and one steal in 18 minutes. However, the Celtics' starters are healthy and ready to begin the series with the 76ers, moving Shulga back to the bench and potentially out of the rotation altogether.

Celtics' Jordan Walsh: Back to bench for Game 1
Walsh isn't starting in Sunday's game against the 76ers.
Walsh started in the Celtics' final three contests of the regular season, most recently finishing with nine points, eight rebounds, three assists, one steal and one block in 33 minutes in the 113-108 win over Orlando on April 12. However, with a healthy starting lineup for Boston versus Philadelphia, Walsh will head back to the bench, potentially seeing 10-15 minutes of work in Game 1.

Celtics' Baylor Scheierman: Back to bench Sunday
Scheierman is not in Boston's starting lineup against Philadelphia for Game 1 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs Sunday.
The Celtics rested all of their starters and prominent role players in their regular-season finale against the Magic on April 12, which led to Scheierman starting and finishing with 30 points, seven assists, seven rebounds, two steals and one block over 38 minutes in a 113-108 win. The second-year pro has established a consistent role for himself off the bench this season, and he should maintain that role in the playoffs.

Celtics' Ron Harper: Not starting in Game 1
Harper won't start in Sunday's game against Philadelphia.
Harper started in the 113-108 win over Orlando to close out the regular season, finishing with a career-high 27 points. However, with the Celtics starting their usual group in Game 1, as expected, Harper will head back to the bench, significantly reducing his workload.

Celtics' Luka Garza: Not starting Game 1
Garza is not in the Celtics' lineup against the 76ers for Game 1 on Sunday.
Garza started in Boston's regular-season finale against Orlando on April 12, when he played 38 minutes and finished with 27 points, 12 rebounds, one assist, one steal and three three-pointers in a 113-108 win. He will retreat to the bench for Sunday's contest and serve in a backup role behind Neemias Queta and Nikola Vucevic, though Garza may have a hard time finding some playing time given that rotations tend to shrink for the playoffs.

Celtics' Hugo Gonzalez: Fades injury report
Gonzalez (foot) isn't listed on the injury report for Sunday's Game 1 against the 76ers.
Gonzalez missed Boston's regular-season finale due to a right foot bone bruise but is set to be available for the start of the playoffs. However, the rookie first-rounder isn't guaranteed to see meaningful playing time.

Celtics' Sam Hauser: Cleared for playoffs
Hauser (back) is not on the Celtics' injury report for Game 1 against the 76ers on Sunday.
Hauser managed a lingering back injury during the regular season and was sidelined for the Celtics' regular-season finale against the Magic on April 12, but the fifth-year sharpshooter will be available for Game 1 on Sunday. Hauser finished the 2025-26 regular season averaging 9.2 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 2.5 threes over 24.8 minutes per game, starting 49 of 78 games.
