In what’s becoming more the norm of the 2020-2021 season, the Celtics will not be at full strength for today’s game. Boston has officially ruled out Jaylen Brown with a right ankle sprain against the Bulls. Brown left the TD Garden floor against the Trail Blazers after slamming into Jayson Tatum, but fortunately, avoided significant injury after what looked like a nasty collision on Sunday.
Before Wednesday night’s game in Orlando, head coach Brad Stevens deemed Jaylen Brown day-to-day after missing the Magic game. On 98.5 The SportsHub’s Toucher & Rich, Danny Ainge targeted Sunday’s first game against the visiting Miami Heat (the second game of the mini-series is on Tuesday night) for Brown’s return.
