The Celtics are trying to make up some ground for the top seed in the East, but they may have to do so without one of their best players.

Jaylen Brown and Jrue Holiday are both listed as questionable against the Cavs, and it will be interesting to see if they can play in this primetime game. Holiday played in the Celtics' previous game against the Pistons but didn't shoot the ball well, finishing with four points and shooting 0-for-5 from three.

The Georgia native has taken on the mantle once carried by the heart and soul of the franchise during its last rebuild, guard Marcus Smart.
