Boston Celtics swingman Jaylen Brown and point guard Terry Rozier are expected to play in the team's home game against the Orlando Magic, though they are reportedly both under minutes restriction.

Jaylen Brown has missed the last three games for Boston, and it was initially thought that he'd miss the game against the Magic as well. However, he has shown significant progress over the last 24 hours, which changed his status for Sunday's contest.
Terry Rozier, meanwhile, played just seven minutes Friday due to illness and went back to the locker room to receive treatment at the end of the first half. He was initially listed as questionable for the game, but he was deemed good to go — albeit on limited minutes.
Both players expected to be ready for the Celtics' postseason run. Boston, a team that has been plagued by injuries all season, is starting to become healthy just in time for the playoffs. Brown and Rozier will immediately play a significant role in helping the team make a deep run and even come out of the East to challenge for the title.
The Celtics are currently fourth in the East standings, though the Indiana Pacers still have a chance of toppling them from their position.
