Fantasy Impact:
Tatum suffered an inadvertent poke in his eye from Kevin Durant during a loose ball opportunity, resulting in a mid-third quarter exit during a Game 2 loss that was already out of hand. Celtics head coach Brad Stevens told reporters that Tatum was able to log a full practice on Thursday, meaning he will be available to return to Boston's lineup during Game 3 in Boston on Friday. His return provides a huge spark for the Celtics, as they lost Game 2 by 22 points and find themselves down 2-0 in the series.
