Ron Harper Jr. - Garbage-time special Harper posted zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) across seven minutes during Wednesday's 118-89 loss to the Hornets.

Impact Harper logged seven minutes during garbage time as Boston was blown off the court by Charlotte. Although Harper has seen the court in 10 of the past 12 games, he has been unable to produce anything of note, averaging just 4.2 points and 2.4 rebounds per game during that span.

Payton Pritchard - Drops a donut in heavy loss Pritchard racked up zero points (0-6 FG, 0-5 3Pt) and two rebounds in 24 minutes during Wednesday's 118-89 loss to the Hornets.

Impact Pritchard went scoreless for the second time in the past three games, continuing what has been a weird stretch. It's been night and day over his past six games, scoring no more than eight points in four appearances, while dropping 22 and 25 points in the other two contests. He remains a clear hold, although managers would love to see him add some consistency to his game.

Baylor Scheierman - Meaningful role continues Scheierman posted nine points (3-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and five assists over 32 minutes during Wednesday's 118-89 loss to the Hornets.

Impact Scheierman played at least 30 minutes for the third time in the past six games, continuing to function as a member of the starting lineup. Although his playing time has been encouraging, he has yet to take full advantage of the situation. In eight games over the past two weeks, he has barely been a top 200 player in nine-category leagues, averaging 9.1 points and 4.9 rebounds in 27.4 minutes per game.

Jaylen Brown - Double-doubles in blowout loss Brown supplied 20 points (7-19 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 11 rebounds and seven assists across 34 minutes in Wednesday's 118-89 loss to the Hornets.

Impact Brown missed Monday's win over Milwaukee due to an illness but returned to action Wednesday. The star forward struggled with efficiency but still extended his streak of 20-plus-point performances to 22, albeit in a losing effort. He also led the Celtics in rebounds and assists. He has recorded two double-doubles and a triple-double across six outings since the All-Star break, and he has dished out at least seven dimes in five of those six games.
