Jaylen Brown (hand) questionable for Boston Wednesday
Boston Celtics small forward Jaylen Brown is questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Phoenix Suns due to a bruised right hand.
What It Means:
Celtics head coach Brad Stevens said Brown has been dealing with the injury since taking a fall against the Dallas Mavericks on November 24, which led to a three-game absence for a tailbone injury. Gordon Hayward and Marcus Smart would be in line for more minutes Wednesday if Brown sits.
Jaylen is averaging 20.4 FanDuel points in 24 games (19 starts) this season. numberFire's models expect him to record 13.0 points, 4.9 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.9 steals, and 1.0 3-pointers per contest over the rest of the year.
