Kornet (wrist) will not play in Saturday's Game 3 against the Pacers.

EDGE Analysis

This news is expected, as Kornet was previously carrying a doubtful tag. Oshae Brissett is likely to pick up a handful of reserve minutes with Kornet sidelined if Game 2 is any indication.

Kornet (wrist) is doubtful for Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Pacers on Saturday, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kornet exited Thursday's Game 2 due to a left wrist sprain and will likely be unavailable for at least one matchup. Assuming Kornet is sidelined, Oshae Brissett could see additional run for Boston.

Kornet (wrist) had two rebounds in five minutes during Thursday's 126-110 victory over Indiana in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

EDGE Analysis

Kornet didn't return to the game, and the big man's status for Game 3 of the series Saturday should be treated with caution. If he can't go, then Xavier Tillman would operate as Al Horford's backup.

Kornet is questionable to return to Thursday's Game 2 against the Pacers due to a left wrist sprain.

EDGE Analysis

The potential absence of Kornet will hurt the team's frontcourt depth, as the Celtics are already missing Kristaps Porzingis (calf). If Kornet can't return, then Xavier Tillman would be in line to absorb minutes as Al Horford's backup.

Kornet (calf) is available for Monday's Game 4 against the Cavaliers.

EDGE Analysis

Kornet was probable for Monday's matchup and will officially be able to suit up once again. Over the first three games of the series, he's averaged 3.0 points and 4.7 rebounds in 13.7 minutes per game.

Kornet (right calf tightness) is listed as probable for Monday's Game 4 against the Cavaliers, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kornet sustained a calf strain in late April but has suited up for each of the last six games for Boston. If he were to end up missing Monday's tilt, Xavier Tillman would likely work behind Al Horford at the five.

Kornet (calf) tallied two points (2-2 FT) and one rebound across five minutes Saturday in the Celtics' 104-84 win over the Heat in Game 3 of the first-round playoff series.

EDGE Analysis

After Kornet was ruled out of the Celtics' playoff opener April 21, head coach Joe Mazzulla labeled the backup center as week-to-week after he strained his right calf during a practice. Ultimately, Kornet missed just two games on account of the issue, as he took back a small role in the Boston rotation in his return to action Saturday. Kornet is unlikely to see his playing time grow substantially as the Celtics' playoff run continues.

Kornet (calf) is available for Saturday's game against the Heat.

EDGE Analysis

The availability of Kornet means the Celtics will be at full strength for Game 3 of the series against the Heat. Kornet should see minutes off the bench, though he's likely to have a very limited role with both Kristaps Porzingis and Al Horford available.

Kornet (calf) is probable for Saturday's Game 3 in Miami.

EDGE Analysis

After starting the final two regular-season games while the usual starters rested, Kornet was sidelined for the first two postseason games while rehabbing a calf injury. Even if he gets the green light, Kornet isn't guaranteed a significant role, especially if Al Horford and Kristaps Porzingis remain healthy.

Coach Joe Mazzulla said Thursday that Kornet (calf) is feeling good and more will be known about his injury Friday depending on how he responds to work being done on the court, Jay King of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kornet has already missed the first two games of Boston's first-round series against Miami with a calf injury. While Kornet could return to action if the series is drawn out, the Celtics appear to be using Al Horford as their sole bench big.
