He returned from a five-game absence caused by a hamstring issue for Friday's loss to Portland, finishing with 21 points and 17 assists in 35 minutes.

Fred VanVleet Unavailable Against Boston

Houston Rockets guard Fred VanVleet (back) won't play on Sunday against the Celtics. He's battling lower back tightness. But he logged 34 minutes in Saturday's overtime victory over the Utah Jazz, so the team is likely playing it safe on the second night of consecutive outings.
