Joe Mazzulla out vs. Rockets due to injury, Damon Stoudamire to coach

The Boston Celtics will look to pick up another win as they take on the Houston Rockets on Tuesday at home following a big Christmas Day win over the Milwaukee Bucks. The Celtics have been playing excellent basketball at 24-10, but they will have to win on Tuesday without their leader.
