Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum, who is listed as doubtful for Game 3 of their first-round series against the Orlando Magic on Friday, has a "severe" bone bruise in his wrist, according to Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla.

After suffering a wrist injury during Game 1 of the Boston Celtics' series against the Orlando Magic, Jayson Tatum did not play in Game 2. His absence did not stop the Celtics from taking a 2-0 lead over the Magic, but his status looms large as the playoffs progress.
