The Celtics are facing potential absences of up to three key players as they prepare to face the Houston Rockets at TD Garden on Monday night. Backup forward Sam Hauser is questionable due to a right hip impingement, joining Al Horford (toe sprain) and Derrick White (shin contusion) on the injury report. Despite their injuries, the Celtics are looking to build on a successful road trip with a 3-1 record. The Rockets, on the other hand, have won eight of their last 10 games and will have key players available for the matchup. Ime Udoka, the former Celtics coach now leading the Rockets, will be returning to TD Garden for the second time since his suspension and dismissal. Udoka praised his former team for winning the NBA championship last season and expressed no surprise at their success. The Celtics and Rockets will tip off at 7:30 p.m. on Monday night in what promises to be an exciting matchup.
