Boston Celtics head to Charlotte shorthanded for their matchup against the Hornets, with Jaylen Brown out due to left Achilles tendinitis—his second straight absence—and Derrick White sidelined by a right knee contusion on the first night of a back-to-back; Jayson Tatum is available after right Achilles management, Neemias Queta probable with a thumb sprain, and new addition Nikola Vucevic out via finger fracture. The second-place Celtics (49-24) seek rebound from a recent 118-89 loss to these 10th-place Hornets (39-34), who clinched play-in positioning amid a hot streak snapping the Knicks' seven-game win run. Boston's historical edge (16-4 last 20 head-to-head) faces test from Charlotte's home form and Boston's depth issues in the tight Eastern Conference playoff push.
