With Kyrie Irving done for the season, Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum need to perform.

In addition to their injuries, Boston rests Al Horford and Jayson Tatum, but still wins as Jaylen Brown scores 32 points.

Boston remains competitive, but injuries have led to thinking about the playoffs rather than getting the top seed.

The team said Irving is expected to make a full recovery in four to five months.

Toronto moves closer to clinching the top seed in the Eastern Conference by beating Boston.

The short-handed Celtics get 24 points from Jayson Tatum, but Giannis Antetokounmpo and Milwaukee pull out a 106-102 win.

The Celtics are depleted by injuries and Terry Rozier has added a spark while filling in for Kyrie Irving.
