The Celtics are 0-2 and could be without All-Star Jaylen Brown as his hamstring injury has him listed as questionable to start the day. Boston opened its season with a 117-116 loss at home to the Philadelphia 76ers and followed that up with a 105-95 road loss to the New York Knicks. Now comes a 1-1 Pistons squad that opened its season by just missing out on a 22-point comeback in a 115-111 loss to the Chicago Bulls. Detroit followed that up with a 115-111 road win over the Houston Rockets that featured Ausar Thompson facing off with his twin brother Amen, as both started for their respective squads. Thompson had 19 in the win while Cade Cunningham led the squad with 21, and Duncan Robinson proved 17. For the Celtics, Brown is averaging 24 through two contests and Derrick White is averaging 20. And then from there, Sam Houser, Neemias Queta, Payton Pritchard and Anfernee Simons are all averaging between 11.5 and 13 points.
