4 years agoBoston Celtics point guard Kemba Walker (knee) will be held out for the second leg of the team's back-to-back Wednesday against Atlanta. Walker has not yet played in both ends of a back-to-back this season with his absence paving the way for Payton Pritchard and Jeff Teague to see increased single-game appeal. Walker scorched the Hawks for a season-high 28 points last Friday, as Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown figure to see their already sizable offensive workload tick upward in Walker's absence. His next chance to return comes Friday versus the Pacers.--Jesse Borek
