Brown is expected to miss 1-to-2 weeks with a hamstring injury, so Schroder should see plenty of opportunities over the Celtics ' four-game Week 5 slate next week.

Schroder is averaging Udoka essentially confirmed what was rumored to be the likely recovery timeline for Brown, who was held out of Saturday's loss to Dallas with the strained right hamstring. Brown can safely be ruled out for all three of Boston's Week 4 contests, and fantasy managers may have to prepare for him to miss at least part of the team's four-game Week 5 slate as well.

Schroder tallied 20 points FG, 3Pt, FT , six assists and four rebounds in 39 minutes during Saturday's loss to the Mavericks. Schroder moved into the starting lineup and could remain there for at least a week given the latest news we have surrounding Jaylen Brown hamstring. This is not a situation that is unfamiliar to Schroder, so he should be able to make a good fist of things. It is unlikely he is available in any leagues at this point, but if for some reason he is floating around on your waiver wire, that needs to be rectified.

Celtics vs. Newcomer Dennis Schroder has missed the last two games after bruising his knee. Earlier this week, we examined everything that would have to break right for the Celtics to overachieve this season. Asked to compile the reasons the team might underachieve this year, we kept falling back to one culprit in particular: Health.

Look, every team deals with injuries. To the credit of the Celtics players that slogged through a cover-your-eyes season, they have refused to blame all their struggles on health woes.

Younger players like Aaron Nesmith and Romeo Langford have played with far more consistency and poise this preseason. To learn more or opt-out, read our Cookie Policy. Seems like a good time for one of my favorite offseason traditions. Pulling out a pad of paper writing out the roster, and making wild guesses about how the team will fit together once they actually take the court together.

Aside from those moves, this team is going to really rely upon internal growth. Robert Williams might have the highest upside. Payton Pritchard has already proven his worth in a rotation. Aaron Nesmith has shown promise as the kind of 3-and-D player that every team needs.

Romeo Langford needs to stay healthy and Grant Williams needs to be more consistent, but both have a baseline level of talent worth investing in.

Marcus Smart might be the only guy on the team that kind of is what he is. And even he could be utilized in a different role by new head coach Ime Udoka.
