Jordan Walsh News, Rumors, Updates - Boston Celtics

Removed from rotation Friday Walsh (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Friday in the Celtics' 98-96 win over the Heat.

Impact With Jaylen Brown (hamstring/knee) and Sam Hauser (thumb) returning from one-game absence and with Nikola Vucevic making his Celtics debut, head coach Joe Mazzulla opted to remove Walsh from the rotation. Though defense is Walsh's calling card, his lack of productivity on the offensive end looks as though it cost him his spot on the second unit Friday. Since moving out of the starting five Jan. 3, Walsh has shot just 38.3 percent from the field and 25.8 percent from three-point range in 18 appearances. Walsh's move outside of the rotation may not necessarily be a permanent one, but even if he gets some minutes in the Celtics' next game Sunday versus the Knicks, he shouldn't be expected to deliver much fantasy value.

Downward slide continues Walsh logged zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) over 10 minutes during Tuesday's 110-100 victory over the Mavericks.

Impact Walsh went scoreless in the win, now serving as nothing more than a depth piece for the Celtics. Outside of a brief run earlier in the season, Walsh seems as though his time as a viable fantasy asset has come and gone. At this point, there is no reason to be holding him, even in deeper formats.

Another passive performance Walsh ended with five points (1-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds, one block and one steal over 16 minutes during Friday's 112-93 victory over the Kings.

Impact Walsh was used sparingly again, playing fewer than 20 minutes for the seventh time in the past eight games. With Sam Hauser seemingly taking hold of the starting power forward position, Walsh has been relegated to a depth role. In eight appearances over the past two weeks, he has averaged just 3.4 points and 2.5 rebounds in 14.5 minutes per game, leaving him well outside the top 300 in nine-category formats.

Improved performance in loss Walsh ended with six points (3-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt), nine rebounds, one assist and three steals across 26 minutes during Monday's 98-96 loss to Indiana.

Impact Walsh logged 26 minutes in the loss, the most he has played in his past five games. After a stint in the starting lineup, Walsh has since been reduced to a limited role off the bench. In four games over the past week, Walsh has averaged just 1.8 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 16.0 minutes per game. Given the uncertainty in Boston, there is no reason to consider Walsh a pickup based on this effort.

Double-double off bench Saturday Walsh closed with 13 points (5-7 FG, 3-4 3Pt), 13 rebounds, two assists and one block across 30 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 146-115 victory over the Clippers.

Impact Shifting to the second unit while Sam Hauser got a start at the four, Walsh produced his second double-double of the season, with the other coming Nov. 20 against the Cavaliers. Walsh's production has been on the decline in the starting five -- he'd failed to score in double digits, or pull down more than seven boards, in seven straight games -- but it's not yet clear if Saturday's effort will be enough for the third-year forward to regain his spot.

Coming off bench Saturday Walsh is not in the Celtics' starting lineup against the Clippers on Saturday, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

Impact Head coach Joe Mazulla will shake up the rotation Saturday, moving Walsh to the bench while Sam Hauser enters the starting five. Walsh has been a mainstay in the Celtics' starting lineup since Nov. 12, but over his last seven outings he has averaged just 4.0 points and 3.4 rebounds over 14.3 minutes per game.

Starting role yields nothing Walsh chipped in three points (1-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt), two rebounds and three assists in 19 minutes during Friday's 140-122 victory over the Pacers.

Impact Walsh returned from a one-game absence, slotting straight back into the starting lineup. The positives end there, however, as Walsh was unable to have any sort of tangible impact on the game. After a brief run of value, it's been slim pickings for Walsh of late, averaging 4.3 points and 4.8 rebounds in 17.7 minutes in his past four appearances.

Under the weather Walsh (illness) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Pacers, Zack Cox of the Boston Herald reports.

Impact Walsh joins Jaylen Brown as the two Celtics players battling through illnesses, which prevented the latter from playing in Saturday's 112-96 win over the Raptors. If Walsh is unable to play Monday, then Sam Hauser and Josh Minott would be the top candidates to enter the Celtics' starting lineup.

Records 20 points in loss Walsh produced 20 points (8-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds and three steals across 32 minutes during Thursday's 116-101 loss to Milwaukee.

Impact Walsh continues to thrive since moving into the starting lineup on Nov. 12. The 21-year-old forward led both teams with three steals, his second straight game with three, and recorded the second 20-point performance of his career. He's been hyper-efficient as a scorer lately, shooting an impressive 81.1 percent from the field over the past five games while averaging 15.2 points, 6.2 rebounds, 2.0 steals, and 1.0 assists in 26.6 minutes per game.
