Boston Celtics' big man, Nicola Wusevich, is inching back from a fractured finger that sidelineed him for a full month. The team just upgraded him to questionable for Sunday's clash with the Toronto Raptors, putting him one step from action. He first got dinged up during that 120-100 blowout win over the Dallas Mavericks. According to NBA Insider, Mark Stein, this status-bump signals Wusevich is primed for a return right before the playoffs kickoff.

Tatum himself lit up about teaming with him, and this could mark their first game together on the floor. In 12 games with Boston, Wusevich has averaged 10.4 points on 44.5% shooting, hitting 35.1%. From beyond the arc, plus 7.2 rebounds a night.
