Marcus Smart (ankle) remaining sidelined Tuesday for Celtics
Boston Celtics point guard Marcus Smart (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday against the Miami Heat.
Smart and Malcolm Brogdon (personal) will both remain out for the second leg of Boston's back-to-back. Jaylen Brown (adductor) will also rest on Tuesday night, so look for Derrick White and Payton Pritchard to play extended minutes. White started on Monday versus the Orlando Magic and scored 11 points (4-8 field goals, 2-4 3-pointers, 1-1 free throws) with 4 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal, and 2 blocks.
Pritchard is now numberFire's third-best point-per-dollar value on Tuesday's seven-game slate. He has a $4,100 salary and is projected for 24.1 FanDuel points in 27.7 minutes. White ($5,700) is projected for 27.1 FanDuel points in 29.2 minutes. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Celtics’ implied total (107.25) is the lowest out of 14 active teams today.
