Brad Stevens gave a string of availability updates in his pregame press conference before the Boston Celtics played the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday.

Most notably, Kemba Walker will be out for "at least" through Wednesday night's game against the Charlotte Hornets with a left side strain. He'll be re-evaluated Thursday.

Jayson Tatum is out against the Thunder with a left ankle impingement and "a bunch of different things from the load he's carried" throughout the year. This seemingly will be a rest night for the All-Star wing.

Stevens is hopeful that Tatum, along with Robert Williams, will be back with the Celtics on Wednesday.

Tip-off between Boston and Oklahoma City is set for 7 p.m. ET.
