Mandatory Credit: Gregory Fisher-Imagn Images Although this is the final week of the NBA regular season, the Boston Celtics still have at least one significant thing to iron out entering Tuesday’s game against the visiting Charlotte Hornets: making sure Nikola Vucevic fits comfortably into the rotation before the playoffs begin.
Vucevic returned to the court for Sunday’s 115-101 victory over Toronto after missing four weeks with a broken finger. The injury occurred in a March 6 game against Dallas, the same night Jayson Tatum returned from his Achilles injury.
Vucevic collected four points and four rebounds in 13 minutes against Toronto, but he also picked up four fouls.
“He was good,” Boston coach Joe Mazzulla said. “I mean, it was only 13 minutes. I thought offensively he made the right reads, missed a couple. Second half, we kind of went to — it was almost, we were looking at some different matchup stuff, so we didn’t get him in as much as we wanted to in the second half. But he was fine, I thought. He’s just going to continue to get acclimated.”
Vucevic said regaining chemistry is the hardest part about returning after missing significant time with an injury.
“That just has to come from us playing and practicing together, which is good I get at least these five games in before the playoffs then we’ll have that week between that will help,” he said. “But I think as far as plays, coverages, kind of knowing what to do out there in different situations, that was pretty good for me. I did a lot of it throughout my rehab. A lot of my workouts were fully left-handed, but I was still learning plays like that.
“Just continue to play alongside all of the guys,” he continued. “Obviously me and JT didn’t get a lot of time together, but I think we’re both high-level players, both smart players, and I think we’ll be able to figure it out pretty quick. Just even being around the guys, the time I did play, I think it’s helped a lot. Obviously, it would have been great to have that full month that I missed, but it is what it is. We know we’ll try to make the best out of it in the next couple games. And then also I think that week leading up to the playoffs is going to help. We’ll probably have a couple practices which will help as well.”
The Celtics (53-25) will be looking to extend their winning streak to four games.
Charlotte (43-36) has won four in a row since it dropped a 114-99 decision to Boston at home on March 29. The Hornets are 9-2 in their last 11 games, and are trying to avoid the play-in tournament by finishing sixth or higher in the Eastern Conference.
Charlotte will participate in the postseason for the first time since 2015-16, when the Hornets lost to Miami in the first round.
The Hornets beat the Celtics 118-89 when the teams met in Boston on March 4. Charlotte’s Miles Bridges said dealing with Boston’s physicality will be paramount Tuesday night.
“We came into their place and beat them,” he said. “Then they came into our place and beat us, so we want to return the favor and start getting ready for the playoffs.”

Apr 5, 2026; Denver, Colorado, USA; St. Louis Blues center Robert Thomas (18) faces off against Colorado Avalanche center Brock Nelson (11) as linesman Travis Gawryletz (67) drops the puck in the third period at Ball Arena. Mandatory Credit: Isaiah J. Downing-Imagn Images Defeating the Colorado Avalanche once has proven to be a difficult assignment for most teams, but defeating them twice in a row seems akin to ascending Mount Everest.
That’s the mountain that the St. Louis Blues must climb to pick up crucial points Tuesday night when they welcome the Avalanche in the second half of a home-and-home set.
Robert Thomas scored with 2:50 remaining in the third period as a part of his first career hat trick to carry the Blues to a 3-2 road victory over Colorado on Sunday.
“It’s taken a long time, so it feels good,” Thomas said of his goal-scoring feat. “A little bit of a relief, but yeah, it’s been a while.”
Thomas got some help from his linemates en route to the hat trick, with Jimmy Snuggerud and Dylan Holloway each tallying three assists in the victory.
The Blues (33-31-12, 78 points) enter Tuesday firmly entrenched in the tightly contested race for the final wild-card spot in the Western Conference thanks to an extended streak of winning hockey, with a 6-1-1 record over their past eight games and 13 wins since the Olympic break (13-3-3).
St. Louis’ top talents have led by example during this stretch. Thomas has picked up points in five straight games (five goals, five assists), while Holloway has a six-game point streak (four goals, seven assists).
“We’re having fun as a team, we’re trying to win games, we’re doing our best to possibly do that,” Snuggerud said. “Coming into this building is a tough one, and I thought we rose to the occasion, and we need to do the same thing at home.”
Despite Sunday’s defeat, the Avalanche (50-16-10, 110 points) are on the brink of winning the Presidents’ Trophy for the fourth time in franchise history, waiting on just one more victory or a Dallas Stars loss in regulation to secure the top spot in the Western Conference.
Colorado most recently topped the league with 82 points during the shortened 56-game regular season back in 2020-21.
Only one night after suiting up for his 1,000th consecutive contest, Brent Burns turned back the clock with a two-point performance (one goal, one assist) on Sunday, while Parker Kelly reached the 20-goal plateau for the first time in his career.
“Things are just going in. I mean, like this one goes off my stick then off their guy. So, little bit of luck,” Kelly said. “I’m happy with the year I’ve been having, but yeah, we still got (six) games here, and we need to get a couple more wins here. That’s the priority.”
Forward Valeri Nichushkin missed Sunday’s clash due to an upper-body injury, but he could be available for the second game of the set.
“He’s probably a possibility even for Tuesday. We’ll just see how he feels the next couple days. Just that time of year,” Avalanche coach Jared Bednar told the media. “You get some little bumps and bruises. Everybody has them, but sometimes there’s something a little bit more significant. I don’t want to be playing guys hurt if it can get worse. So, you got to be careful on some of them. That’s what we did today with Val.”
Avalanche superstar Nathan MacKinnon, who leads the league with 51 goals and sits third in points with 122, will be looking to get back on the scoresheet after being blanked Sunday.
