More about BOS vs WAS Dream11 will be given here.
Celtics vs Wizards NBA Play-in tournament: Celtics were underwhelming all season long considering the amount of talent they have and with Brown out for the season, they will have to reply majorly upon Walker and Tatum for the offense. Although the Celtics have decent offensive options, they fall prey to playing too much isolation at times and ranked bottom 10th in APG, with 23.5. On the other hand, the Wizards who were one of the worst teams in the league turned their season around after the All-Star break behind a herculean effort by Westbrook who picked triple-doubles for fun. While being a decent offensive team, the Wizards ranked dead last when it came to defense, allowing 118.5 PPG and it surely will be an area of concern. Celtics beat the Wizards in the regular-season series, winning two of three games.

Russell Westbrook
PPG: 22.2
APG: 11.7
RPG: 11.5
SPG: 1.4
TPG: 4.8
Projected Fantasy Points: 74
Westbrook notched up triple-doubles like a beast and willed the Wizards into the Play-in tournament through his heroics. The PG is on a mission and has had another record-breaking season. Despite criticisms against his way of playing, he has shown that he can light a fire in a squad with less depth, and in the last 5 games of the season, he averaged an incredible 27.8 PPG, 15.6 APG, and 12.8 RPG making him a dream Fantasy player and an ideal candidate as the Super-Player in the Dream11 NBA scenario.
Jayson Tatum
PPG: 26.4
RPG: 7.4
APG: 4.3
SPG: 1.2
TPG: 2.7
PFP: 50
Tatum had an incredible scoring season and with Brown out for the game and the season, he will have further offensive duties to make sure that the Celtics advance to the next round. Jayson will be a key for the Boston Celtics if they want to down the Wizards. The Forward scored 26 points or more in the last 4 games he played.
Bradley Beal
PPG: 31.3
RPG: 4.7
APG: 4.4
SPG: 1.2
TPG: 3.1
PFP: 55
Bradley missed a decent amount of games at the tail-end of the season and played through a difficult injury during the last game of the season. Despite all of it, he finished as the second-best scorer in terms of PPG and averaged 34.2 PPG for the last 5 games, breaching the 30 points mark twice in the window.
Kemba Walker:
PPG: 19.3
APG: 4.9
RPG: 4.0
SPG: 1.1
TPG: 2.2
PFP: 43
Walker brings a ton of scoring and is capable of scoring 20 points and more on most nights. He missed a ton of games at the start of the season but now the Celtics will need him to be at his best so that they can secure a Playoffs spot. He averaged an incredible 27.8 PPG for the last 5 games of the regular season, cracking the 30 points mark thrice in the window.
Marcus Smart: PPG: 13.1 APG: 5.7 RPG: 3.5 SPG: 1.5
TPG: 2.0 PFP: 39
Smart is perhaps the best perimeter defender on the Celtics and will be the “X-Factor” in this game. The guard can also score and dish out assists, and averaged 6.2 APG for the last 5 games of the regular season.
Rui Hachimura: PPG: 13.8 RPG: 5.5 TPG: 1.2 PFP: 23
The young PF is the “X-Factor” for the Wizards and despite many shortcomings, he can come up with more than average scoring performances. He averaged 14.8 PPG for the last 5 games.
Evan Fournier(Since joining Celtics): PPG: 13.0 RPG: 3.3 APG: 3.1 SPG: 1.3 TPG: 1.2 PFP: 34
Fournier who joined the team after the mid-season trade gives the Celtics much-needed depth at the guard position and will play a vital role in this match-up. He averaged 20 PPG for the last 5 games which is a terrific sign.
