Okongwu (teeth) exited to the locker room during Wednesday's game against the Celtics, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Okongwu got popped in the mouth by Jaylen Brown as the latter was making a move to the hoop, and Okongwu had a couple of teeth pushed back. He'll likely need some dental work and should be considered questionable to return.
