The Brooklyn Nets will look very different Monday night than they did a week ago when they last faced the Boston Celtics. And the Celtics enter Barclays Center for the 7:30 p.m. Eastern tip with a very different look, as well.
The Nets may get forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson back after he’s been out the last six games with a hip injury. Hollis-Jefferson is questionable and will be a game-time call.
Boston All-Star Kyrie Irving, on the other hand, is officially out for Monday after sustaining a contusion in his right quad Saturday when the Celtics lost on the road to the Orlando Magic, while another Boston guard, Marcus Smart, is doubtful due to illness.
