Celtics rule out Jayson Tatum (wrist) for Game 2 vs. Magic

Celtics star forward Jayson Tatum will miss the first playoff game of his career when Boston hosts the Orlando Magic in Game 2 of their Eastern Conference first-round playoff series Wednesday night.

The six-time All-Star was listed as doubtful Wednesday with a bone bruise in his right wrist that he suffered in the Celtics' 103-86 Game 1 victory Sunday.

Tatum had played in all 114 possible playoff games during his eight seasons in Boston. He played in 72 games during the regular season, leading the Celtics in points, assists and rebounds per game.
