Tatum scores 38, Celtics rally past Hawks for 8th win in row

Jayson Tatum scored 38 points and led a third-quarter surge that sent the Boston Celtics past the Atlanta Hawks 105-95 for their eighth straight win

Meaningful production in victory Williams produced 10 points (4-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals across 24 minutes during Monday's 122-92 victory over Miami.

Impact Williams managed to contribute across the board in the victory, continuing what has been a solid campaign for the Celtics' version of Mr. Fix-It. While he rarely blows up, he is often the first player to be called upon when a primary piece goes down with an injury. He is a highly efficient scorer from the perimeter and can chip in on the defensive end of the floor. Managers in deeper formats could certainly do worse if looking for a multi-cat specialist.

Impact Williams is quietly in the midst of a solid four-game stretch, averaging 9.8 points on 50.0 percent shooting while connecting on multiple threes in each game.

Scores 10 in spot start Williams produced 10 points (4-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt), two rebounds and two blocks over 25 minutes during Monday's 104-92 victory over New Orleans.

Impact With Robert Williams (personal) unavailable, Grant drew his first start since Jan. 2. He posted a meager stat line, but it was easily his best performance since Dec. 31. The third-year pro is averaging just 7.0 points and 3.2 rebounds across 22.5 minutes this season and doesn't warrant much fantasy consideration, even when the Celtics are without a core player or two.
