EDGE Analysis

Pritchard notched 22 points (9-11 FG, 4-5 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists and one steal across 22 minutes during Friday's 130-94 win over the Hornets.
EDGE Analysis
Pritchard reverted to his sixth-man role Friday after starting in Wednesday's loss to the Magic. The fifth-year guard out of Oregon proceeded to lead both teams in scoring, and he's connected on at least four triples 34 times this season. With the Celtics locked in as the No. 2 seed in the East, Pritchard will likely have his playing time limited in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Hornets.

Pritchard is not in the Celtics' starting lineup against the Hornets on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Pritchard made his second start of the season Wednesday against the Magic and registered his third double-double of the year in a loss. He'll return to his sixth-man role Friday with Jrue Holiday and Derrick White both back in the lineup. Pritchard has averaged 12.6 points, 5.0 assists, 4.0 rebounds and 0.8 rebounds over 29.6 minutes per game over his last five outings, though he's shot just 30.0 percent from three on 6.0 3PA/G over that span.

EDGE Analysis

Pritchard will be in the starting lineup for the Celtics on Wednesday against the Magic, Cody Taylor of USA Today reports.
EDGE Analysis

Pritchard amassed 20 points (8-18 FG, 4-11 3Pt), six rebounds, seven assists and two steals in 30 minutes during Sunday's 124-90 victory over the Wizards.
EDGE Analysis
This game was over in a hurry, allowing Pritchard to feast in garbage time. During the final week of the regular season, Pritchard could find himself with some fill-in starts if the Celtics opt to rest their key players ahead of the playoffs, with the No. 2 seed locked up.

Pritchard (hip) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Spurs, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Pritchard is having a career with the Celtics this season, but he won't be on the floor Saturday in San Antonio due to left hip soreness. Sam Hauser and Baylor Scheierman will likely be the players leaned on in the backcourt against the Spurs due to Pritchard's absence.

Pritchard is questionable for Saturday's game against the Spurs due to left hip flexor tightness, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
The hip issue is a new concern for Pritchard, who hasn't missed an outing since Feb. 4. If the sharpshooter is sidelined against San Antonio, Baylor Scheierman and Sam Hauser could receive an uptick in playing time off the bench. Pritchard has averaged 14.6 points, 4.2 rebounds, 3.4 three-pointers and 3.4 assists across 31.6 minutes per contest over his last five outings (one start).
