Miami Heat guard Victor Oladipo (ankle) has been ruled out of Thursday night’s matchup against the New York Knicks, per the league’s injury report. Oladipo had played 16 games straight before this and has only missed two games since returning from his knee injury on December 6th. It’s safe to say this is a legitimate injury rather than a rest night for the 30-year-old. Miami enters the back half of a four-game road trip with a matchup against the Knicks as they look to distance themselves from New York in sixth place within the Eastern Conference.

Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson (injury management) has been ruled out of Thursday night’s matchup against the Denver Nuggets, per the league’s injury report. As they’ve done all season long, the Warriors are making sure to give Klay rest nights on back-to-backs in order to lower his risk of re-injury to his Achilles. The Warriors had a hard-fought overtime defeat against the Timberwolves last night where Thompson logged 40 minutes, his second-most this season. Without Thompson and potentially more starters being announced later, it will be an uphill battle for the Golden State Reserves to pull off the upset in Denver tonight.

It could be argued that the Boston Celtics don’t need to make any moves prior to the NBA’s trade deadline on Feb. 9. The Celtics have sprinted out to the NBA’s best record, sitting at 36-15 with just eight games to go before the All-Star break. Jayson Tatum is playing at an MVP level. Boston’s bench has seen marked improvement on both ends. The return of Robert Williams III has gone relatively smoothly.

BOSTON — Trying to divvy up credit through the Celtics’ historic start hasn’t been an easy task. Though Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown have produced superstar performances on a near-nightly basis, any given game can provide a breakthrough performance for a number of players on the Celtics roster. There’s one guy, however, who has garnered praise to the level of Tatum and Brown throughout Boston’s most successful stretches.

BOSTON — Finding something negative about the Celtics feels like nitpicking at this point, but there’s a growing concern about how much basketball Jayson Tatum has played over the last three years.
