6 p.m. ET Update: Jayson Tatum (ankle) and Romeo Langford (neck) will play for the Celtics on Monday. Tyrese Maxey (quad) is out for the 76ers.
Joel Embiid, Danny Green and Tyrese Maxey are all questionable to play against the Boston Celtics Monday. The Philadelphia 76ers had their game on Sunday postponed, which could pave the way for those players to see the floor after an unscheduled night off. The Sixers won't have backup center Andre Drummond who entered health and safety protocols on Sunday.
On the other side of that matchup, Jayson Tatum, Romeo Langford and Dennis Schroder are questionable as well. The Celtics have seven players in health and safety protocols and needed to sign CJ Miles Monday to sure up their roster.
Ja Morant recently cleared health and safety protocols and is questionable to play with an ankle sprain. Tyus Jones is also questionable with a finger sprain.
Paul George is questionable to return to the court Monday after missing five straight games with an elbow sprain. He's been questionable a few times since being sidelined but hasn't been able to get cleared yet.
