The Boston Celtics will be facing the Cleveland Cavaliers at TD Garden on Friday night at 7:30 p.m., but they will be shorthanded as they deal with various injuries and absences. Kristaps Porzingis has been officially ruled out with an illness, while Jrue Holiday will also be missing the game due to a right hand injury. Jaylen Brown and Luke Kornet are still listed as questionable, adding further uncertainty to the Celtics’ lineup.
On the other hand, the Cavaliers are coming into the game fully healthy and see it as an opportunity to measure themselves against a top team in the Eastern Conference. Darius Garland is not on the injury report for the Cavs, and they will be looking to avenge their previous loss to the Celtics earlier this season.
The Celtics currently hold a 2-1 edge in the season series over the Cavaliers, but the outcome of Friday’s game remains uncertain due to the Celtics’ injury concerns.
