Command Analysis
Jayson Tatum didn't play for Boston in the most recent match against Washington. Leader of the Celtics got injuried. But his absence didn't affect team's performance. Jaylen Brown scored 36 points, Malcolm Brogdon added 17. Celtics cruised to a 130:121 victory.
Tatum might return to action in the match against Charlotte. His injury is not too severe, so Joe Mazzulla may let him play in the upcoming match.
After a string of defeats Charlotte finally managed to get two victories. The Hornets secured unexpected wins over Philadelphia (107:101) and Minnesota (110:108). Kelly Oubre put up an outstanding performance, scoring 28 points.
Recent victories lifted Charlotte to the 13th spot in the Eastern conference standings. Fans are expecting a better result, but the Hornets seem unable to climb any higher.
