Celtics' Starting Lineup Against Wizards

The Celtics welcome the Washington Wizards to Boston for the play-in game.

The Boston Celtics will be hosting Russell Westbrook and the Washington Wizards for their play-in game on Tuesday night in Boston.

The Celtics, unfortunately, lost All-Star Jaylen Brown for the remainder of the season due to wrist surgery. That being said, a win on the night gives them the seventh seed, and they still have a loaded roster with All-Star Jayson Tatum leading the way.

For the night, the Celtics starting lineup has been announced and the entire lineup can be seen in a post embedded below from FantasyLabs NBA.

Lineup note: Celtics will start Walker, Smart, Fournier, Tatum, Robert Williams on Tuesday.
