Is Jayson Tatum playing tonight? Latest injury update for Knicks vs Celtics April 11

The New York Knicks are in Boston to play the top team in the East, although the Celtics won't be at full strength. Boston has already locked in the No. 1 seed (subscription required), so key players can rest before the playoffs start in a week and a half.

The rest of the conference is caught in a tight race for playoff seeding, so the Knicks' final three regular-season games are crucial to the team's postseason hopes. Julius Randle is officially done for the season, but Jalen Brunson has elevated his game to another level. He's scored 40+ points in back-to-back games and could up that streak to three on Thursday at TD Garden.

Many believe the Celtics are a lock to make it to the Eastern Conference Finals, but that isn't certain. Thursday's game won't be a preview of that because of Boston's injury report, but maybe these two teams will meet again in the playoffs.
