Jaylen Brown (hamstring) ruled out Tuesday for Celtics
Boston Celtics small forward Jaylen Brown (hamstring) is out Tuesday against the Los Angeles Lakers.
Brown had a "good workout" on Tuesday, per Celtics head coach Ime Udoka, but he will pick up a third straight absence on the front end of a back-to-back. Consider him questionable for Wednesday's matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers. Dennis Schroder will likely start again on Tuesday and Josh Richardson could see a boost off the bench. Marcus Smart and Al Horford also stand to benefit from additional usage.
numberFire's models project Schroder for 24.1 FanDuel points over 28.4 minutes on Tuesday. Smart is projected for 27.9 FanDuel points over 32.4 minutes.
