According to ESPN's Ramona Shelburne, Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown (knee) finished the season with a partially torn meniscus. The 28-year-old was burdened by a right knee injury at the end of the regular season and during the playoffs. However, the exact details of the ailment were never revealed, with the team only reporting Brown had received injections for pain. It was a chaotic end of the 2024-25 campaign for the Celtics, which concluded with Jayson Tatum (Achilles) suffering a torn Achilles in the Eastern Conference semi-final loss to the New York Knicks. But the C's may now have another one of their top stars in need of surgery, although that will be determined in an upcoming evaluation. Brown averaged 22.2 points during the season. Unfortunately, he didn't look his best at times during the playoffs. Hopefully, Brown won't miss any time to begin the year, considering his services will be needed more than ever, especially with Tatum facing a lengthy recovery. With that in mind, Tatum's absence could open the door for Brown to have the best year of his career from a production standpoint, assuming he can stay healthy.

Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown had one of his best postseason games of the year in Wednesday's matchup against the New York Knicks, finishing a 127-102 win with a 26-point, 12-assist double-double. Brown needed to take on extra offensive duties with Jayson Tatum (Achilles) lost for the rest of the way, and he relished the occasion, posting a new career high in assists and missing a triple-double by only two rebounds. He shot 9-for-17 from the field, including 3-for-5 from outside, and tallied one steal on the defensive end. Brown formed a dangerous attacking duo with Derrick White on Wednesday, as the two combined for nearly half (60) of Boston's points. The Knicks will be in trouble if they can't slow them down on Friday night in Game 6.

Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown finished Wednesday's 91-90 loss in Game 2 against the New York Knicks with 20 points, six rebounds, one assist, and two steals. The four-time All-Star had a hot start in the contest but completely cooled off in the second half. Brown only added three points to his tally in the second 24 minutes, shooting 1-for-7 from the field. Four of his six turnovers also came after halftime. The Celtics have seen both Brown and Jayson Tatum struggle to hit shots in the series, and the superstars definitely must improve for the team to avoid a second-round exit. On Wednesday, Brown shot only 8-for-23 from the field and 2-for-7 from downtown. The Knicks have restricted him to 35 percent shooting overall, and he has made only three of 17 attempts from three-point range.

Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown scored 23 points on 7-for-20 shooting in Monday's 108-105 overtime loss to the New York Knicks. Most of the Celtics struggled to hit shots, and Brown was among them, finishing a shocking 1-for-10 from three-point range. His scoring total was salvaged by an 8-for-10 effort at the free-throw line. The reigning Finals MVP led his team with 45 minutes and wrapped up the night with seven rebounds and five assists. Brown has been hampered by a knee injury during the postseason but has boosted his scoring average to 23.0 points per game while grabbing 7.5 rebounds. Before going cold on Monday night, Brown had shot 44.4 percent from downtown. He will attempt to heat up again on Wednesday night in Game 2.

Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown (knee) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Monday's series-opening matchup versus the Knicks. He had routinely carried questionable designations because of a nagging knee issue during the previous series against the Orlando Magic. However, the 28-year-old didn't miss any time. He recently indicated he's feeling better, which is great news. Unfortunately, Brown averaged only 16.3 points in four regular season meetings with New York, making him hard to trust from a DFS standpoint.

Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's meeting with Orlando. The knee issue dates back to the regular season. But, despite the ailment, he's averaged 23.0 points, 8.0 rebounds, and 1.5 steals throughout the series against the Magic. There's always a chance Brown could suffer a setback, which would keep him off the floor for Game 5. If that's the case, Sam Hauser, who averaged 12.2 points and 44.7% shooting from deep in 19 starts during the regular season, would be the favorite to slide into the starting lineup.

Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown (knee) will play on Sunday versus Orlando. The right knee impingement isn't expected to go away anytime soon, so DFS managers will likely see him on the injury report for the rest of the postseason. But unless Brown suffers a setback along the way, he'll likely continue to see north of 30 minutes per contest. However, his presence should mean Sam Hauser, who would have been in line to start, will likely remain on the bench, lowering his fantasy ceiling.

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (knee) is questionable for Sunday's playoff clash with the Magic. Brown has been working through this knee injury over the last few weeks, so he'll likely be out there for Game 4, assuming he hasn't suffered a setback. With Jrue Holiday (hamstring) already ruled out, Al Horford is anticipated to stay in the starting lineup. But if Brown is downgraded, Sam Hauser and Payton Pritchard should receive more minutes, with Derrick White, Jayson Tatum, and Kristaps Porzingis the favorites to lead the way offensively.

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (knee) has been ruled available for Friday night's Game 3 against the Orlando Magic. Brown hasn't missed any games this series and put up a strong performance in Game 2 with 36 points and 10 rebounds. He likely won't have that same level of production tonight given Jayson Tatum's return to the lineup, but fantasy managers and DFS players should expect him to have a productive night as long as confidence from Game 2 carries over.

Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown (knee) was a late addition to the injury report for Game 3 against the Orlando Magic, and his status was set at questionable. He's dealing with a knee issue, which could put the Celtics shorthanded. Jayson Tatum (wrist) is considered doubtful, and Jrue Holiday (hamstring) is also listed as questionable. Brown contributed 36 points and 10 rebounds in their Game 2 victory while Tatum was sidelined, so that production is going to fall on the rest of the team if he can't suit up. Payton Pritchard would likely join the starting lineup in that case, while Sam Hauser and Luke Kornet likely see a bump in minutes as well.

Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown notched a game-high 36 points on Wednesday night against the Orlando Magic, guiding his team to a 109-100 victory. With Jayson Tatum (wrist) sidelined for the contest, Brown needed to take on more offensive duties, and he delivered one of the best postseason performances of his career. His line included 10 rebounds, five assists, and one steal in 42 minutes, as Brown shot 12-for-19 from the floor and an eye-popping 5-for-7 from downtown. Brown battled a knee injury late in the regular season but appears to be 100 percent, at least based on his effort in Wednesday's win. He will be leaned on heavily again on offense in Game 3 on Friday night if Tatum misses additional time.

Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown (knee) doesn't believe he'll face a minutes restriction in Sunday's playoff battle with the Orlando Magic. He suffered from posterior impingement in his right knee, forcing him to miss nine of the Celtics final 20 games of the regular season. Fortunately, head coach Joe Mazzulla reported Brown has looked good. Despite struggling from the three-point line, the 28-year-old has played well against Orlando during the 2024-25 campaign (two games), averaging 27.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, 5.0 assists, and 3.0 steals. While the injury is still somewhat concerning for fantasy managers, Brown is worth including in any DFS lineup on Sunday.

Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown (knee) has been battling knee issues over the last month or so of the regular season. He saw a small decrease in minutes and even sat out of the final three games, which made him ineligible for regular-season awards. Head coach Joe Mazzulla confirmed reports that Brown received pain management injections in his knee, but he also said that he expects the former Finals MVP to be ready to go for Game 1 of their first-round series. Throughout the last postseason, Brown was given the task of guarding the other team's best scorer more often than not. He's extremely important to the Celtics' success, given his level of defense on top of his season averages of 22.2 points, 5.8 rebounds, 4.5 assists, and 1.2 steals per game.

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (rest) won't play on Sunday against the Hornets. The C's are heading to the postseason as the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference. Fortunately, this will enable the club to rest some of their core performers, including Tatum, Jrue Holiday (shoulder), Jaylen Brown (knee), Kristaps Porzingis (illness), Al Horford (knee), and Derrick White (neck). Without those guys on the floor, Payton Pritchard, Baylor Scheierman, Sam Hauser, and ... [More]

Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown (knee) won't play on Sunday against Charlotte. The right knee injury has been an issue of late. Unfortunately, the problem may not be gone anytime soon, with ESPN's Ramona Shelburne reporting Brown received "pain management injections in an effort to promote healing." The 28-year-old struggled in Tuesday's overtime win over the Knicks, his last time on the floor, finishing with only six points in 22 minutes of work. There will likely be more updates on Brown's condition heading into the C's first-round playoff series. But fantasy managers will undoubtedly be hoping the ailment doesn't affect his ability to suit up in the playoffs as well as the start of the 2025-26 campaign.

Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown (knee) won't play on Wednesday against Orlando. He was listed as questionable. However, it appeared he at least had a chance of playing, considering he was warming up. With that in mind, the C's have already secured the No. 2 spot in the Eastern Conference, so Jayson Tatum (ankle), Derrick White (ankle), Kristaps Porzingis (illness), Jrue Holiday (shoulder), and Al Horford (knee) will join Brown on the shelf. As a result, it could be a busy night for Sam Hauser, Payton Pritchard, Luke Kornet, and ... [More]

Fortunately, he was able to suit up for Sunday's blowout win over the Washington Wizards, finishing with 15 points and five assists in 21 minutes. Al Horford (knee) has already been ruled out, and Jayson Tatum (ankle) and Kristaps Porzingis (illness) are questionable. As such, there are plenty of guys who can step into the starting lineup, although Payton Pritchard, Sam Hauser, and Luke Kornet are the favorites to do something meaningful for fantasy managers.

Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's contest against the Miami Heat. He has an issue with his right knee and could be unavailable for a second consecutive game. Sam Hauser typically benefits from Brown's absence and had eight points with three rebounds and three assists in Monday's win over the Memphis Grizzlies. Boston opted for Xavier Tillman Sr. in the starting lineup against a big Grizzlies frontcourt on Monday, but Hauser might have the opportunity to start in place of Brown Wednesday night.

Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup with the Heat. He has been dealing with a right knee injury of late, most recently keeping him off the floor for Monday's win over the Memphis Grizzlies. Xavier Tillman Sr. got the start. However, he had only two points, three rebounds, and one steal in seven minutes of work. With that said, not only is Brown questionable for Wednesday's contest, but Al Horford (toe), Kristaps Porzingis (return from illness reconditioning), and Jrue Holiday (shoulder) are also in danger of not playing. As a result, Tillman, Luke Kornet, Sam Hauser and Payton Pritchard could see a bump in production behind ... [More]
