Oshae Brissett: Declines player option Sunday
Brissett declined his $2.5 million player option with the Celtics on Sunday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
Brissett will become an unrestricted free agent after declining his player option Sunday. The 26-year-old spent one season with the team, and he averaged 3.7 points, 2.9 rebounds, 0.8 assists and 0.3 steals across 11.5 minutes in 55 regular-season games. Brissett was a non-factor for Boston in the playoffs, and his departure likely signals a desire for a larger role elsewhere.

Celtics' Oshae Brissett: Rare appearance in win
Brissett closed Saturday's 106-93 victory over the Cavaliers in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals with no counting stats in one minute.
Brissett played one minute of garbage time as the Celtics held on for a relatively comfortable victory Saturday. Barring another sizable margin, Brissett is unlikely to leave the bench on most nights, especially as we get deeper into the playoffs.

Celtics' Oshae Brissett: Not listed on injury report
Brissett (illness) isn't listed on Boston's injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Hornets, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.
Brissett was sidelined for Thursday's loss to the Knicks due to an illness but will be available for the second half of Boston's back-to-back. If Al Horford (toe) and/or Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) is downgraded to out, Brissett could be in line for extended playing time in the frontcourt, along with Luke Kornet and Xavier Tillman.

Celtics' Oshae Brissett: Retreats to bench
Brissett will come off the bench for Monday's game against Detroit, Sean Grande of NBC Sports Boston reports.
Boston will experiment with a Kristaps Porzingis and Luke Kornet starting frontcourt Monday. The duo of bigs is an interesting pairing, but it's more logical in the context of facing a Detroit frontcourt featuring Isaiah Stewart and Jalen Duren.

Celtics' Oshae Brissett: Pitches in offensively in start
Brissett tallied seven points (1-5 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds and two assists over 29 minutes in Sunday's 130-104 win over Washington.
Brissett earned his first starting nod of the season due to Jaylen Brown (ankle), Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) and Derrick White (hand) all being out, contributing offensively and on the glass while finishing three points short of the double-digit scoring mark along with a quartet of boards. Brissett has scored seven or more points in eight games this season, adding four or more rebounds in two of those outings. He posted his highest point total since recording 11 points Feb. 14 against Brooklyn.

Celtics' Oshae Brissett: Getting first start of season
Brissett will start Sunday's game against the Wizards, Sean Grande of NBC Sports Boston reports.
Brissett will make his first start of the season, as Jaylen Brown (ankle), Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) and Derrick White (hand) are all out. Brissett has played 20-plus minutes just four times this season and averaged 6.8 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.3 steals in 20.3 minutes during that stretch.

Celtics' Oshae Brissett: Seven boards in win
Brissett racked up three points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds and one assist across 19 minutes during Monday's 121-99 victory over the Trail Blazers.
After collecting three straight DNP-Coach's Decisions, Brissett received 19 minutes of run on a night where the Celtics were missing Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) and Jrue Holiday (knee). The forward's high-energy motor was on display as he worked the glass. Four of his seven boards were on the offensive end, where Brissett's active hands shine. Boston's addition of Xavier Tillman has made for a confusing rotation for the backup bigs. The team will have many opportunities to experiment with Brissett, Tillman, Luke Kornet and Neemias Queta as it rests the Unicorn and veteran Al Horford before a playoff run.

Celtics' Oshae Brissett: Logs nine minutes in win
Brissett produced one point (1-4 FT), one rebound and one assist across nine minutes during Tuesday's 118-110 victory over the Nets.
Brissett was a non-factor in the win, playing fewer than 10 minutes for the fifth time in the past six games. Even with Kristaps Porzingis (back) sidelined, Brissett was unable to carve out a meaningful role. With Xavier Tillman recently added to the squad, Brissett's outlook is bleak.

Celtics' Oshae Brissett: Scores six points in blowout win
Brissett closed with six points (2-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one steal over 11 minutes during Sunday's 131-91 victory over the Grizzlies.
After three straight scoreless outings, Brissett got on the board Sunday. However, he hasn't scored in double figures since Jan. 11 and hasn't played 20 minutes since Jan. 6, so he doesn't need to be on fantasy radars.

Celtics' Oshae Brissett: Questionable against Detroit
Brissett is questionable for Thursday's game against the Pistons due to a non-COVID illness, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.
Brissett has been an inconsistent part of Boston's rotation, but he's dealing with an illness that could prevent him from suiting up Thursday. If he's available, he could see a slight uptick in playing time, with Jaylen Brown (back) and Jayson Tatum (ankle) questionable.

Celtics' Oshae Brissett: Six points in OT loss
Brissett chipped in six points (3-3 FG) and one steal across five minutes during Tuesday's 132-126 overtime loss to Golden State.
Tuesday marked Brissett's 12th appearance for Boston, and he likely only cracked the rotation because of Kristaps Porzingis' (calf) absence. After averaging 16.7 minutes over 65 games with the Pacers last season, Brissett has found it much harder to see playing time with the more talented Celtics. Of the reserves, only Al Horford, Sam Hauser, Payton Pritchard and Luke Kornet (thigh) have received consistent minutes. Newcomers Brissett, Dalano Banton, Lamar Stevens and Svi Mykhailiuk have struggled to earn consistent floor time. Expect that to continue unless Boston is suddenly hit with a rash of injuries.
