LA is dealing with a ton of injuries.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\"Boston<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The Boston Celtics kicked off their West Coast road trip with a massive win over the Golden State Warriors on Monday night. Now, they\u2019re heading south for a date with the LA Clippers at the brand-new Intuit Dome. They\u2019ll be hoping to win their first back-to-back games since January 2 and 3.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the Clippers will be looking to earn a win in hopes of maintaining their positioning in the tightly-packed Western Conference standings. Both sides are headed for a likely playoff birth, but both have been struggling a bit lately. The Celtics are 6-4 in their last 10, and the Clippers are 5-5.<\/p>\n

Here is the Celtics injury report and Clippers injury report for Wednesday, January 22.<\/p>\n

Celtics injury report vs. Clippers on Wednesday, January 122<\/strong><\/h2>\n
    \n
  • Jrue Holiday QUESTIONABLE (right shoulder impingement)<\/li>\n
  • Al Horford QUESTIONABLE (left big toe sprain)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Clippers injury report vs. Celtics on Wednesday, January 22<\/strong><\/h2>\n
      \n
    • Kawhi Leonard OUT (right knee injury management)<\/li>\n
    • PJ Tucker OUT (not with team)<\/li>\n
    • Ivica Zubac OUT (left eye corneal abrasion)<\/li>\n
    • James Harden QUESTIONABLE (right groin soreness)<\/li>\n
    • Norman Powell (back soreness)<\/li>\n
    • Kris Dunn (left knee soreness)<\/li>\n
    • Nicolas Batum (right finger soreness)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Only two Celtics players are on the injury report heading into Wednesday night. Jrue Holiday<\/strong> is the first, as the veteran guard is dealing with the same right shoulder impingement that has lingered throughout the year.<\/p>\n

      Al Horford<\/strong> is also questionable due to a left big toe sprain. For a while now, that has simply been the Celtics\u2019 way of holding Horford out for one night of a back-to-back. Boston plays the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday, so Horford will likely sit on Wednesday against the Clippers, and Kristaps Porzingis will probably be out against the Lakers on Thursday.<\/p>\n

      As for the Clippers, they have an extremely length injury report.<\/p>\n

      Kawhi Leonard<\/strong> is out for right knee injury management, PJ Tucker<\/strong> is not with the team, and Ivica Zubac<\/strong> is also out, as he\u2019s dealing with a left eye corneal abrasion.<\/p>\n

      Numerous Clippers players are questionable to play on Wednesday. James Harden<\/strong> and Norman Powell<\/strong> are the most significant. Harden is dealing with right groin soreness, and Powell has back soreness.<\/p>\n

      Kris Dunn<\/strong> is questionable with left knee soreness, and Nicolas Batum<\/strong> is questionable with right finger soreness.<\/p>\n

      Projected starting lineups for Celtics vs. Clippers<\/strong><\/h2>\n

      This is likely what the Celtics will roll with:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • Derrick White<\/li>\n
      • Jrue Holiday<\/li>\n
      • Jaylen Brown<\/li>\n
      • Jayson Tatum<\/li>\n
      • Kristaps Porzingis<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Here is what the Clippers\u2019 first five could look like:<\/p>\n

          \n
        • James Harden<\/li>\n
        • Kris Dunn<\/li>\n
        • Norman Powell<\/li>\n
        • Derrick Jones Jr.<\/li>\n
        • Mo Bamba<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
