Celtics' Enes Freedom: Grabs five boards in win
Freedom provided two points (0-1 FG, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist and two blocks in 23 minutes during Monday's 104-92 win over the Pelicans.The Boston Celtics were without Robert Williams (personal), but Freedom was still a non-factor offensively. Over his last seven games, the veteran big man has totaled just 15 points, 22 rebounds and three blocks. He's unlikely to warrant any fantasy consideration at any point this season, even in deeper leagues.

Celtics' Enes Freedom: Makes return to rotation
Freedom (COVID-19 health and safety protocols) played 12 minutes and recorded three rebounds and no other statistics in Thursday's 108-105 loss to the Knicks.Freedom cleared protocols Wednesday and was available for the Boston Celtics' two-point loss to the Spurs that day, though he didn't see the court. Head coach Ime Udoka was willing to include Freedom in the rotation for the second end of the back-to-back set, deploying him as the primary backup to Robert Williams. Freedom should be part of the second unit more often than not, but his minutes will likely fluctuate based on matchups and whether or not Williams is dealing with foul trouble.

Celtics' Enes Freedom: Double-double in start
Freedom logged 15 points (7-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 11 rebounds and one steal over 40 minutes during Monday's 108-103 loss to the 76ers.Freedom was heavily utilized with Al Horford (COVID-19 protocols) and Robert Williams (personal) unavailable. Although he struggled to stop Joel Embiid (41 points), Freedom was efficient and logged a healthy minus-3 during his time on the floor. The 29-year-old is an elite offensive rebounder and just last season ranked within the league's top 20 for total win shares. When starting, he should be regarded as quality fantasy piece.
