Celtics Mailbag: Jrue Holiday trade risk, targeting Nic Claxton Will the acquisition of Jrue Holiday by the Celtics outweigh Damian Lillard's impact on the Bucks?
Won't play Friday Claxton has been ruled out for Friday's game against Dallas due to a left ankle sprain.
Impact Claxton had a solid performance during Wednesday's regular-season opener and was able to return to the matchup after heading to the locker room with an ankle injury. However, the issue will force him to miss at least one game. Day'Ron Sharpe should see an increased workload Friday, while Claxton's next chance to suit up will be Monday in Charlotte.

Versatile contributor in defeat Claxton closed Wednesday's 114-113 loss to the Cavaliers with seven points (3-10 FG, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and three blocks across 28 minutes.
Impact Claxton was inefficient from the floor during Wednesday's regular-season opener, but he managed to contribute in secondary categories, including a team-high three blocks. The 24-year-old averaged a career-high 12.6 points per game while shooting 70.5 percent from the floor last year, and even if he can't replicate that efficiency during the 2023-24 campaign, Claxton should have an opportunity to put together decent performances on the scoreboard as the season progresses.

Available Monday Claxton (lower body) is available for Monday's preseason game against Philadelphia, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.
Impact Claxton was unavailable for Thursday's exhibition game against Israeli club Maccabi Ra'anana due to a sore glute, but he'll be back in action a few days later. He tallied seven points, four rebounds, an assist and a block in 16 minutes during the Nets' preseason opener against the Lakers.

Sitting as precautionary measure Claxton has been ruled out for Thursday's preseason game against Israeli club Maccabi Ra'anana due to a sore glute, Evan Barnes of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
Impact Claxton's absence is labeled as precautionary, but he'll have an opportunity to rest with just under two weeks remaining until the start of the regular season. It's unclear whether his injury will prevent him from suiting up Monday against the 76ers.

Scores seven points Claxton recorded seven points (3-3 FG, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one block across 16 minutes during Monday's 129-126 preseason loss to the Lakers.
Impact This was a solid showing for Claxton, and you have to think that he's going to benefit from playing alongside a healthy Ben Simmons. Claxton is coming off a breakout 2022-23 season and could easily be in the running for Defensive Player of the Year once again.
