Celtics holding Jaylen Brown (knee) out Monday versus Raptors

Boston Celtics small forward Jaylen Brown (knee) has been ruled out for Monday versus the Toronto Raptors.

What It Means:

The Celtics have ruled out Brown, Jayson Tatum (knee), and Al Horford (personal) for the second leg of their back-to-back set on Monday. Robert Williams will also be unavailable after he suffered a torn meniscus in his left knee during Sunday's game. As a result, look for Marcus Smart and Derrick White to carry the shorthanded Celtics on offense versus Toronto. Aaron Nesmith is also in line for a larger role on Monday.

Brown is second on the Celtics this season with a 30.4% usage rate and Tatum is leading the team at 32.1%. White is now numberFire's fourth-best and Nesmith is our seventh-best point-per-dollar value on Monday's nine-game slate.
