Confirmed Lineup: Jrue Holiday, Derrick White, Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum, Kristaps Porzingis
The Celtics have faced the Pacers twice this season and split those games. Now, they'll face them in each of the next two outings. In the most recent meeting between these teams, Indiana won by double digits, but Boston was without Porzingis, who has sat out of one leg of back-to-back sets over the last few weeks. It's unclear if he will appear on the Celtics' initial injury report. He'd be helpful against a Pacers team whose 123.1 Offensive Rating is the league's best, one spot ahead of Boston's 120.8 Offensive Rating.

Harris exited the previous game early, and coach Nurse mentioned postgame that Harris' status for the second leg of a back-to-back set will be determined by how he feels in the morning. Embiid also had a brief injury scare in Friday's game but was never forced to leave because of it. The 76ers are set to face the Jazz, who have quietly won seven of their last 10 games. Philadelphia has struggled recently as they've lost two of their last three, posting the fifth-worst Net Rating (-11.9) over that span of games.
Confirmed Lineup: Damian Lillard, Malik Beasley, Khris Middleton, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Brook Lopez
