Jaylen Brown's Current Injury Status For Thunder-Celtics Game
UPDATE: Jaylen Brown is available (h/t Keith Smith of Spotrac).
On Wednesday evening, the Boston Celtics will host the Oklahoma City Thunder in Massachusetts.
For the game, the Celtics could be without one of their best players, as All-Star forward Jaylen Brown is on the injury report.
Brown also missed the team's last game, so this would be his second straight out of the lineup (if he doesn't play).
