The team poured in 53 points and effectively slammed the door on the Heat in the first 12 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Winning in that fashion is always a tremendous confidence booster, something any team will gladly welcome at the end of the season when playoff ramifications are abundant every night.<\/p>\n<p>More importantly, Boston saw almost all its stars in the lineup.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Jays \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/heavy.com\/nba\/player\/jayson-tatum\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Jayson Tatum<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/heavy.com\/nba\/player\/jaylen-brown\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Jaylen Brown<\/a> \u2014 flexed their duo muscle all game.

(Photo by Maddie Meyer\/Getty Images)<\/p>\n<p>All signs point to the Celtics getting fully healthy at the right time.<\/p>\n<p>In recent weeks, the team has seen several stars appear on the injury report, including Tatum, mostly for Achilles repair management, and Brown. Star guard <a href=\"https:\/\/heavy.com\/nba\/player\/derrick-white\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Derrick White<\/a> has also battled some minor lower-extremity trouble, but he has been gutting it out and hasn\u2019t missed games.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Turning to tomorrow night against the lottery-destined Bucks, the Celtics are happy to learn that they are almost entirely whole.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Here is the <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/celtics\/status\/2039808785187852531\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external nofollow\">official injury report<\/a> the team released ahead of tomorrow\u2019s game in Milwaukee:\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Boston is missing one final piece before postseason run<\/p>\n<p>The biggest question all year was once about Tatum. Suddenly, it has been nearly one month since the former All-Star made his season debut against the <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" title=\"Dallas Mavericks\" href=\"https:\/\/heavy.com\/sports\/nba\/dallas-mavericks\/\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"212854\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Dallas Mavericks<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>While he\u2019s had some understandable ups and downs since returning to the court, Tatum has begun coming into his own, as evidenced by a recent 30-plus point burst on the road against the streaking <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" title=\"Charlotte Hornets\" href=\"https:\/\/heavy.com\/sports\/nba\/charlotte-hornets\/\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"212855\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Charlotte Hornets<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Against Miami on Wednesday, Tatum didn\u2019t post his usual efficiency \u2014 9-for-21 shooting overall and just 4-for-13 from 3 in 37 minutes \u2014 but his volume shooting to go along with the confidence he exhibited in taking more shots is an encouraging indicator.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Now the Celtics are awaiting Vucevic to get cleared to return.<\/p>\n<p>The 35-year-old big man was acquired a few days ahead of the February trade deadline. The move meant an immediate upgrade in the front court and even more quality depth.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Vucevic happened to fracture his right ring finger just a couple of days before Tatum\u2019s return. The two stars are yet to share the court, which is important to note in terms of establishing some continuity ahead of the playoffs.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Boston aims for its 52nd win of the season tonight in a game the team absolutely must take care of easy business.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/heavy.com\/author\/adelahmad39\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Adel Ahmad<\/a> Adel is a writer with over five years of experience covering the NBA.
