Jaylen Brown (ankles) says he's playing for Celtics on Tuesday
Boston Celtics small forward Jaylen Brown (ankles) told reporters that he will play Tuesday against the Houston Rockets.
What It Means:
Brown missed a game due to a right ankle sprain last week and then rolled his left ankle on Sunday. He was listed as probable on Monday's injury report, so there wasn't too much concern about his availability. Over his last five contests, Brown is averaging 21.2 points, 5.8 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 0.8 steals, and 1.4 3-pointers on 48.9 percent shooting.
numberFire's models expect Brown to score 32.6 FanDuel points on Tuesday. He's priced at $5,900. Per our NBA Heat Map, the game has the second-highest over/under (232.0 points) on Tuesday's five-game slate.
