The Celtics return to TD Garden after a four-game road trip as they\u2019ll face a familiar foe in the Rockets and ex-C\u2019s coach Ime Udoka. They have two players listed on the injury report for the 7:30 p.m. Monday game.<\/p>\n

Al Horford (left big toe sprain) and Derrick White (right shin contusion) are both questionable for Monday\u2019s game. White was questionable ahead of the blowout Mavericks win for a knee issue, so the contusion injury is new. Horford could end up getting a rest day with his current injury designation.<\/p>\n

The Celtics and Rockets will meet for the second time this month. Back on Jan. 3 in Houston, the C\u2019s overwhelmed the Rockets in a 109-86 victory. The Rockets, though, are flying high as they\u2019ve defeated the first-place Cavaliers over their past two games.<\/p>\n

Houston has been a surprise this season after missing the playoffs last year. Udoka is in his second year leading the team as the Rockets are currently 30-14 on the season and tied for second in the West. They\u2019re just a few wins away from the 32-14 Celtics, who are second in the East.<\/p>\n

The Udoka angle is going to be a subplot whenever his team plays against the Celtics. He led the C\u2019s to the 2022 NBA Finals in his lone season in Boston. His suspension-turned-dismissal is well-documented as both sides moved on afterwards, including with the C\u2019s winning it all in 2024.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
