The Celtics have been red hot lately, but as they entered this contest, their star guard, Jaylen Brown, was on the injury report. Brown landed on their injury report with a knee issue listed as questionable.

The Celtics are very familiar with Wiggins' game, as he played a pivotal role in their loss to the Golden State Warriors in the 2022 NBA Finals because of his defense on Jayson Tatum. His absence could make it easier for the Celtics' win streak to reach double digits.

The veteran forward's absence streak will extend to three games Wednesday, and head coach Erik Spoelstra said Tuesday that Wiggins has no timetable for a return, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
