Boston team officials have declined to confirm or deny the roster's 100% vaccination rate. But
according to The Boston Globe's Gary Washburn, at least two important Celtics players have not received the shots necessary to enter Canada.
"What could derail this season, however, is the team entering the playoffs without all players vaccinated," Washburn wrote in a column published Sunday. "The Celtics refuse to say publicly whether all their players are vaccinated, as some teams have declared. And according to an NBA source, at least two frontline players are not vaccinated, which would prevent those two players from participating in road games in a playoff series against the Toronto Raptors."
Following
the Celtics' demolition of the Washington Wizards on Sunday afternoon at TD Garden, both Al Horford
and Jaylen Brown failed to provide answers that made their vaccination status abundantly clear. We also don't know if Williams is vaccinated, but
recovery from knee surgery is going to keep him out of Round 1 anyway
