Won't return Sunday Hauser won't return to Sunday's game against the Wizards due to a left ankle sprain, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.

Impact Hauser appeared to roll his ankle near the sideline early in the third quarter before heading to the locker room and ultimately being ruled out for the remainder of the game. Hauser was lighting it up before his departure, posting a career-high 30 points and knocking down 10 three-pointers on just 13 attempts.

Impact With Jaylen Brown (ankle), Derrick White (hand) and Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) out, Hauser and Oshae Brissett will start alongside Jrue Holiday, Jayson Tatum and Al Horford. As a starter this season (seven games), Hauser has averaged 9.6 points, 4.9 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 33.6 minutes.

Scores 14 as starter Hauser notched 14 points (5-13 FG, 4-11 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal in 34 minutes during Tuesday's 123-107 road win over the Jazz.

Impact Hauser has looked impressive in back-to-back games to end Boston's current road trip. That said, his opportunities will decrease when Jaylen Brown (back) and Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) return from their injuries. Hauser was part of a Celtics lineup that shot 40.8 percent from behind the arc. But he will probably return to his season average 21 minutes per game when Boston returns home Thursday and faces the Suns.

Impact The third-year wing played more than 30 minutes for the first time since Jan. 21, helping pick up the slack left by the absences of Jrue Holiday (knee) and Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring), and Hauser turned the court time into season highs in scoring and made three-pointers. He's been an especially dangerous weapon from beyond the arc of late, draining multiple threes in six of the last 10 games while shooting 50.0 percent (23-for-46) from long distance.
