Not listed on injury report
Hauser (thumb) is not listed on the injury report for Friday's matchup with the Heat, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.
Analysis
It looks like Hauser will be back in action Friday night following a one-game stint on the sidelines, which should result in fewer minutes for Hugo Gonzalez, Jordan Walsh and Ron Harper. Hauser is averaging 9.2 points and 2.6 triples per game this season.

Ruled out Wednesday
Hauser has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Rockets due to a right thumb strain, Jay King of The Athletic reports.
Analysis
With Hauser out and Jaylen Brown (hamstring/knee) doubtful, the Celtics are expected to be shorthanded in the second leg of this back-to-back set. Hugo Gonzalez and Jordan Walsh will likely see a significant bump in minutes, while Josh Minott may enter the rotation. Hauser's next opportunity to play will come Friday against Miami.
