The Boston Celtics hold a 1-0 lead in their first round series against the Orlando Magic in the 2025 Eastern Conference NBA Playoffs, and will face off against the Magic in Game 2 on Wednesday, April 23 at their home court of TD Garden. But the Celtics, already a bit dinged up with one star dealing with lingering pain from a bone bruise may now have the same issue with both of their top two stars (if in different parts of their bodies).How much will an injury to a key Boston player impact this game, and series? Will it extend what looked like it was otherwise going to be a short series? We think the Celtics should be fine in this round, but team health is something to watch closely moving forward into future rounds.
Let's take a look at player health for both teams, likely starters, and how to watch or stream the game.Player injuriesFor the Celtics, only Jayson Tatum (Right Distal Radius; Bone Bruise) is listed as doubtfulFor the Magic, Jalen Suggs (knee) and Moritz Wagner (ACL) are out.Probable starting lineupsBoston Derrick WhiteJrue HolidayJaylen BrownJayson TatumKristaps PorzingisOrlandoCory JosephKentavious Caldwell-PopeFranz WagnerPaolo BancheroWendell Carter Jr.
