Celtics Weighing Changes As Finals Series Resumes
Jayson Tatum Earns All-NBA First Team Honors
Mazzulla Staying Mum on Possible Lineup Tweaks
The Boston Celtics are considering making some changes to their starting lineup as they prepare for Game 2 of the NBA Finals against the Phoenix Suns on Sunday night. Head coach Joe Mazzulla didn't rule out any changes during Wednesday's practice, but he also didn't give any specific details about what those changes might be.
One possibility is that the Celtics could start Derrick White or Malcolm Brogdon in place of Grant Williams. White and Brogdon are both more experienced and versatile players than Williams, and they could provide the Celtics with a boost on both ends of the court. However, Williams has been a key part of the Celtics' success this season, and he provides them with valuable size and toughness.
Another possibility is that the Celtics could start Robert Williams III in place of Al Horford. Williams is a more dynamic and athletic player than Horford, and he could help the Celtics improve their rebounding and defense. However, Horford is a more experienced player and a better shooter, and he has been a key part of the Celtics' success this season.
Mazzulla said he will make a decision about the starting lineup after practice on Saturday. He said he will consider a number of factors, including the matchup with the Suns, the players' health, and their recent performance.
