Back to bench Wednesday
Walsh is not in the Celtics' starting lineup against the Heat on Wednesday.
Analysis
Walsh started each of the Celtics' last two games, but the third-year wing will revert to a bench role for Wednesday's contest. The Celtics will roll with a starting lineup of Derrick White, Jaylen Brown, Sam Hauser, Jayson Tatum and Neemias Queta.

Starting versus Charlotte
Walsh will start in Sunday's game against Charlotte, according to Justin Turpin of WEEI.com.
Analysis
The Celtics are down Jaylen Brown (Achilles) and Derrick White (knee), so head coach Joe Mazzulla will turn to Walsh to make his first start since New Year's Day. In 20 starts during the campaign, the 22-year-old is averaging 7.8 points, 4.9 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 0.6 blocks and 1.1 steals across 21.5 minutes.

Resurfaces in rotation
Walsh recorded five points (2-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt), three rebounds, three blocks and one assist across 27 minutes Friday in the Celtics' 109-102 win over the Hawks.
Analysis
With Jaylen Brown (Achilles) sitting out Friday, Walsh re-entered the rotation after going unused in each of the Celtics' last six games. Walsh fared well in his low-usage role, knocking down his lone perimeter shot while making his biggest impact at the defensive end. Despite seeing heavy minutes Friday, Walsh could drop back out of the rotation Sunday in Charlotte if Brown is cleared to return to action.
