What happened

Payton Pritchard left Boston's Tuesday win over Milwaukee in the third quarter after suffering a right eye abrasion and going to the locker room.

He had already been upgraded from a right shoulder contusion before tipoff, finished with 10 points and five rebounds in 18 minutes, and Joe Mazzulla said he is okay.

LINEUP CONTEXT

Boston may need to monitor backcourt availability if Pritchard's eye issue lingers, with Tatum resting and Carter still sidelined.
