Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Scores game-high 29 points
Pritchard scored 29 points (12-16 FG, 5-6 3Pt), two rebounds and eight assists across 33 minutes in Friday's 112-93 win over the Kings.
Pritchard was on the verge of recording what would have been his fifth game with at least 30 points this season, but he still finished as the game's highest scorer by a wide margin. Pritchard has cleared the 20-point mark in three of his last five outings and should continue as one of the Celtics' go-to options on offense as long as he continues to carry a hot hand.

Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Powers Boston to victory
Pritchard chipped in 23 points (8-16 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 2-4 FT), five rebounds and three assists over 35 minutes during Monday's 102-94 win over Portland.
Pritchard battled through a minor finger injury Monday, but he was able to return following a brief trip to the locker room. He finished the night with the team lead in scoring, tacking on 15 of his 23 points from beyond the arc. Pritchard has been on a tear from beyond the arc over his last three appearances, knocking down 12 of 25 tries during this brief stretch.

Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Quickly returns Monday
Pritchard (finger) has returned late in the fourth quarter of Monday's game against the Trail Blazers, Zack Cox of the Boston Herald reports.

Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Exits with finger injury
Pritchard went to the locker room during the fourth quarter of Monday's game against the Trail Blazers due to a left finger injury, Zack Cox of the Boston Herald reports.
Pritchard appeared to suffer the injury while attempting to grab a rebound late in the fourth quarter. He was taken out at the 2:40 mark and went straight to the locker room to have his injury evaluated by medical staff. Anfernee Simons should be on the floor down the stretch in Pritchard's absence.

Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Goes off for 32 in 2OT
Pritchard produced 32 points (13-24 FG, 6-11 3Pt), four rebounds and four assists across 40 minutes during Friday's 130-126 double-overtime victory over the Nets.
The six made threes tied Pritchard's second-best performance from behind the arc this season. Friday's win marked his fourth time scoring 30 or more points this year. His most timely make was in the first overtime period when he drained a triple that set up Hugo Gonzalez's game-tying shot to extend the game again. Backcourt mate Derrick White was rested against the Nets, opening up more opportunity for Pritchard, who made the most of it.

Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Nearly double-doubles in win
Pritchard amassed 10 points (4-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, eight assists and one steal over 33 minutes during Wednesday's 119-104 victory over Indiana.
Pitchard handed out a team-high eight assists, marking his fifth such performance in January and his 11th of the season. The 27-year-old guard has also scored in double figures in eight of 10 outings this month, averaging 14.9 points, 6.0 assists, 4.3 rebounds, 1.9 threes and 1.0 steals over 32.3 minutes per game.

Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Good to go Monday
Pritchard (ankle) is good to go for Monday's game against the Pistons, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.
Pritchard was previously carrying a questionable tag after missing Saturday's game against the Hawks. With Pritchard expected to reclaim his starting spot, the Celtics will likely shift Baylor Scheierman back to the second unit.

Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Iffy for Monday
Pritchard (ankle) is questionable for Monday's game against the Pistons, John Karalis of BostonSportsJournal.com reports.
Pritchard is in jeopardy of missing his second consecutive contest due to left ankle soreness. If the 27-year-old point guard is ultimately ruled out, Baylor Scheierman, Hugo Gonzalez and Anfernee Simons would be candidates for increased minutes. Over eight outings this month, Pritchard has averaged 15.3 points, 6.1 assists, 4.4 rebounds and 1.1 steals across 32.0 minutes per contest.

Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Won't play Saturday
Pritchard (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Hawks.
The absence is expected given Pritchard was initially listed as doubtful for Saturday's game due to left ankle soreness, and his next opportunity to play is Monday against the Pistons. Anfernee Simons has been playing well of late and could enter the Celtics' starting lineup in Pritchard's absence. However, if the Celtics opt to keep Simons on the bench, then Jordan Walsh and Hugo Gonzalez would be candidates to start against Atlanta.

Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Unlikely to play Saturday
Pritchard (ankle) is doubtful for Saturday's game against the Hawks, Zack Cox of the Boston Herald reports.
Pritchard played a season-low 24 minutes in Miami on Thursday, scoring only two points (1-4 FG), but there wasn't an in-game injury reported. However, he is now at risk of missing his first game of the 2025-26 season Saturday due to left ankle soreness. The Oregon product is averaging 15.3 points, 6.1 assists, 4.4 rebounds and 1.1 steals through eight contests in January. If he's unable to go, Anfernee Simons, coming off a 39-point performance Thursday against the Heat, is a candidate to move into the starting lineup.

Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Bounces back in loss
Pritchard closed Monday's 98-96 loss to Indiana with 23 points (10-22 FG, 3-7 3Pt), four rebounds, eight assists and two steals over 37 minutes.
Pritchard responded well from a miserable shooting performance Saturday against the Spurs by leading the Celtics in scoring Monday. He was asked to step up without Jaylen Brown (back) and answered the call, as Pritchard got back in rhythm from beyond the arc and reached the 20-point threshold for the third time in his last five games. However, it wasn't enough to help Boston emerge victorious after Pascal Siakam knocked home the game-winning shot with 6.8 seconds to go.

Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Dominates paint vs. Toronto
Pritchard registered 27 points (12-19 FG, 3-5 3Pt), eight assists, five rebounds and one block over 29 minutes during the Celtics' 125-117 win over the Raptors on Friday.
Pritchard finished as Friday's leading scorer, but the sixth-year point guard did most of his damage within the arc and was seemingly able to get any clean shot he wanted in the paint. It was his 11th 20-plus-point outing of the season, and he has scored at least 20 points seven times against the Raptors in his career. Through the first five games of January, Pritchard has averaged 18.6 points, 5.8 assists, 4.6 rebounds, 2.4 threes and 1.0 steals over 33.0 minutes per game while shooting 50.0 percent from the field.

Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Posts solid all-around showing
Pritchard provided 17 points (5-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, two assists and two steals over 34 minutes during Wednesday's 114-110 loss to the Nuggets.
Pritchard was unable to find his groove from beyond the arc Wednesday, but he saved his night by getting to the charity stripe. The Oregon product has now registered at least one steal in eight straight games and is averaging 16.6 points, 4.9 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 1.4 steals in 35.0 minutes during this stretch.

Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Lands four triples in win
Pritchard ended with 21 points (8-17 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, five assists and one steal in 31 minutes during Monday's 115-101 victory over the Bulls.
Pritchard had no trouble getting to his spots against a lackluster Chicago defense, scoring 21 points, including four triples. It was the first time Pritchard had topped 20 points in five games, a welcome return to form for those invested in the young guard. Through 35 regular-season games, he is putting up career-high numbers, averaging 16.9 points, 4.5 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 2.6 three-pointers in 32.9 minutes per game.

Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Solid output in win
Pritchard had 18 points (8-15 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, six assists and one steal across 35 minutes during Tuesday's 129-119 win over Utah.
Pritchard's final statistics didn't jump off the stat sheet, but it was a solid all-around performance for the point guard. If it weren't for an off night from beyond the arc, Pritchard would have had a shot at scoring 24 or more points for the third time in five games. He'll finish the month of December averaging 16.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 1.0 steals across 33.7 minutes per game.

Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Nears double-double in win
Pritchard amassed 29 points (10-17 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 6-8 FT), nine rebounds, five assists and one steal across 38 minutes during Friday's 140-122 victory over Indiana.
After scoring just 11 points on 4-for-12 shooting during Monday's win over Indiana, Pritchard bounced back and finished as Boston's second-leading scorer. The 27-year-old point guard has recorded at least 29 points in two of his last three outings and has reached that mark four times this season. Additionally, he chipped in a game-high nine rebounds, finishing one board shy of his third double-double on the campaign. He was also productive as a playmaker and dished out five or more assists for the eighth time in his last nine appearances.

Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Comes alive in third quarter
Pritchard registered 33 points (13-24 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 10 assists and eight rebounds over 36 minutes during the Celtics' 112-96 win over the Raptors on Saturday.
Pritchard was thrust into a larger role Saturday after Jaylen Brown was ruled out due to an illness. Pritchard dished six of his 10 dimes in the first half, but he took on a larger scoring role coming out of halftime, scoring 19 of his game-high 33 points in the third frame. It was the third time this season that the sixth-year point guard scored 30-plus points in a game, and he was two rebounds shy from recording the second triple-double of his NBA career. With Jayson Tatum (Achilles) sidelined, Pritchard is off to the best start of his career and is averaging 17.0 points, 5.2 assists, 4.4 rebounds and 2.7 threes over 32.4 minutes per game.

Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Good to go Monday
Pritchard (neck) is available for Monday's game against the Pistons.
Pritchard was a late addition to the injury report due to neck spasms, though he'll shed his questionable tag Monday. Over five games in December, the 27-year-old point guard has averaged 14.2 points, 6.0 assists and 4.2 rebounds in 32.2 minutes per contest.

Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Downgraded to questionable
Pritchard is questionable for Monday's game against Detroit due to neck spasms, Zack Cox of the Boston Herald reports.
Pritchard was a late addition to the injury report and is in jeopardy of missing his first game of the campaign. If he's unable to give it a go Monday, Derrick White is likely to see an uptick in usage, and Anfernee Simons could be more involved in the backcourt.

Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Racks up seven assists in loss
Pritchard racked up 11 points (4-14 FG, 3-11 3Pt), five rebounds and seven assists over 31 minutes during Thursday's 116-101 loss to the Bucks.
Pritchard has thrived in a larger offensive role this season, scoring in double figures in 21 of 25 games. The 27-year-old guard struggled with his shot Thursday night, however, going 3-for-11 from three-point range, and he has cooled off a bit since his 42-point outburst Nov. 30 against the Cavaliers. He's shooting 38.4 percent from the field and 31 percent from downtown on 8.4 attempts per game during that five-game stretch.
