BOS • Guard-Forward • #7
about 15 hours ago
Absent from the first injury report released by the Celtics, Brown is now doubtful due to lower back spasms. His absence would result in more prominent roles for Anfernee Simons and Baylor Scheierman, not to mention starters Derrick White and Payton Pritchard.

Brown flirted with a triple-double on the second night of a back-to-back after dropping 25 points in a win over the Raptors on Friday evening. The 29-year-old franchise cornerstone has gone up a level this season as Boston’s primary scoring option, averaging 29.5 points through 36 games.

It’s not hyperbolic to suggest that Brown has morphed into a legitimate MVP candidate this season as he’s topped 25 points in 13 of 15 games since the start of December while propelling the Celtics towards the apex of the Eastern Conference without Jayson Tatum. The 29-year-old franchise cornerstone contributed 13 early points as the Celtics shot 61 percent from the floor in the opening half and wound up pulling away in the late stages. He got to the charity stripe a whopping 13 times and knocked down his final 12 attempts from the line. The Celtics have been one of the hottest teams in the Eastern Conference, winning 13 of their last 17 game. They’ll close out a back-to-back on Saturday evening when they host the Spurs at TG Garden.

After a rough night in Monday’s win over the Bulls, Brown got back on track Wednesday night in terms of scoring. Since December 2, he’s tallied at least 30 points in 11 of the 14 games that he’s played. Add in the rebounds, assists and three-pointers, and the overall stat line recorded on Wednesday was excellent. However, Brown was responsible for seven turnovers, the most he’s had in a game since November 18 (eight vs. Brooklyn). Due to that category, there has been a three-round gap in Brown’s eight- and nine-cat values over the past month.

Brown’s magnum opus featured an extremely efficient shooting performance as he knocked down 18-of-26 attempts, including 6-of-10 from beyond the arc, finishing at nearly 70 percent from the floor. It was his second 50-point effort, matching his previous career-high mark set back on January 2, 2022. The 29-year-old franchise cornerstone combined with teammate Derrick White for 24 first-quarter points as Boston erupted for a season-high 42 points in the opening stanza and simply never looked back. It was a sublime all-around performance as Brown also locked up Clippers star Kawhi Leonard on the defensive end of the floor. He’s scored at least 29 points in 11 of his last 12 games since December 2. Unreal. The Celtics return home next week for a four-game slate that includes matchups against the Bulls, Nuggets, Raptors and Spurs.

Despite not shooting well from beyond the arc, Brown nearly found his way to the 30-point mark. He flourished inside the arc and additionally hit the glass hard to tally a double-double. The former Finals MVP did commit five turnovers, however, signaling that it wasn’t easy for him against this Sacramento defense. Still, he finished with another strong line in what’s been a successful season for him as the clear No. 1 option in Boston.

Unfortunately, Brown’s 30-point game streak came to an end. He would’ve broken Larry Bird’s franchise record for most consecutive 30-point games, but instead he reached double-digit assists for the second time this season and helped the Celtics to a win. Brown is still having an incredible season even if the historic streak is no longer active. He’ll look to stay hot in Sacramento on Thursday.

Brown matched Larry Bird’s franchise record with his ninth consecutive 30-point performance dating back to December 2. Boston had a chance to steal the game late, but Brown was involved in a couple turnovers in the closing moments that snuffed out the comeback bid. Even so, the 29-year-old ranks sixth in the league in scoring and has continued to thrive in Jayson Tatum’s absence, delivering fourth-round fantasy value while averaging 29.7 points, 6.3 rebounds, 4.9 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.4 blocks through 29 games. The Celtics continue their West Coast swing this week with matchups against the Jazz, Kings and Clippers.

Brown spent most of the night carving Indiana’s defense apart from the mid-range before finally stepping out late, drilling a pair of threes in the final six minutes to extend his 30-point streak to eight consecutive games since December 2. The 29-year-old offensive catalyst did a little bit of everything in a stat sheet-stuffing performance, chipping in three rebounds, four assists and four thefts as the Celtics defeated the Pacers for the second time in the past week. He’s delivered top-40 overall value for fantasy purposes this season, averaging 29.4 points, 6.3 rebounds, 4.9 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.5 blocks through 28 games. The Celtics have won nine of their last 11 games. They’ll face the Trail Blazers on Sunday before continuing a West Coast road trip next week with showdowns against the Jazz, Kings and Clippers.

Brown continued his streak of 30-point games Monday. The 29-year-old small forward now has at least 30 points in seven consecutive games and 10 of his last 11 games. Brown is clearly the Celtics’ top scoring option with Jayson Tatum (Achilles) sidelined and remains a top fantasy option.

Brown sat out Saturday against Toronto, but he’ll return following a one-game absence. Brown’s return should send Sam Hauser back to the bench after Hauser filled in for Brown on Saturday.

Brown did not play in Saturday’s win over the Raptors, opening up a spot in the starting lineup for Sam Merrill. However, Payton Pritchard benefited the most from Brown’s absence, as he dropped 33 points. Hauser would remain in the starting lineup if Brown can’t return on Monday.

No surprise here as Brown was initially listed as doubtful with an illness. In the 29-year-old small forward’s absence, Sam Hauser is the primary beneficiary for fantasy purposes. Josh Minott and Baylor Scheierman could also see extra minutes off the bench.

After dropping 30 points in Friday’s win over the Heat, Brown is expected to miss the second leg of Boston’s back-to-back. During his previous absence, Sam Hauser moved into the starting lineup, though Josh Minott and Baylor Scheierman also saw a bump in minutes off the bench.

Brown’s unreal stretch continued in this game. This was the sixth straight game he has scored at least 30 points, and the only time he failed to score 30 points over his last 10 outings was when he recorded a triple-double. Brown’s performance in this game helped Boston end a two-game slide. They’ll wrap the week up in Toronto on Saturday, and a win would move them into third place in the East.

Aside from his foul shooting, fantasy managers who have Brown rostered don’t have anything to complain about regarding his performance on Monday. He’s scored at least 30 points in five straight games, his most productive scoring run of the season. Remove the turnovers, of which Brown had four against the Pistons, and he’s approaching top-25 value in eight-cat formats. As long as the Celtics are without Jayson Tatum, there’s a high likelihood that Brown will keep producing gaudy stat lines.

Brown has now had exactly 30 points in three consecutive games. Boston had won six of its last seven games before losing to the Bucks 116-101 on Wednesday. Brown wasn’t blameless in the loss as he had four turnovers and was -15 in 29 minutes. Still, he was the Celtics’ leading scorer and will continue to operate as the top scoring option with Jayson Tatum sidelined.

White finished Week 7 with an excellent stat line, making it three straight and six of the last seven games in which he’s scored at least 30 points. The Celtics star kept the turnovers in check on Sunday, making it two straight appearances with three miscues or fewer. Brown and the Celtics play once during Week 8, as they visit the Bucks on Thursday. While the schedule isn’t great for fantasy managers, it is for a player who dealt with hamstring issues earlier this season.

After missing the first night of the Celtics’ back-to-back, Brown was back in the lineup for this game. The last game he played in was his 42-point performance against the Knicks, and he picked up right where he left off. This was his 12th time scoring at least 30 points this season, and he has at least 30 in five of his last six appearances. That was enough in this one for Boston to win its fourth straight game, which they’ll look to continue in Toronto on Sunday.

Brown returns to the Celtics’ starting lineup after missing Thursday’s win over the Wizards with an illness. He’s averaging career-bests in points (29.0) and assists (4.8) per game, and has been Boston’s best player in the absence of Jayson Tatum (Achilles). With Brown back in the lineup, the Celtics will have a better chance of securing a fourth consecutive win.

This will be Brown’s first missed game of the season, and has been anticipated over the last couple of days. His absence will mean more shots from Payton Pritchard and Derrick White but also increased usage for guys like Anfernee Simons, Josh Minott, and Sam Hauser.

Brown is expected to miss a game for the first time this season, which opens up a ton of minutes and shots. Anfernee Simons, Josh Minott, Sam Hauser and Hugo Gonzalez are all candidates to start in place of Brown, though all four should see a boost in minutes.

One game removed from recording his first triple-double of the season, Brown dropped a season-high 42 points on Tuesday. Boston trailed by as much as 14 during the first quarter but, thanks in part to Brown, would lead by as many as 21 points before holding on for the win. Brown’s eight-cat fantasy value has aligned with his Yahoo! ADP, as he’s providing third-round value. The lone issue on Tuesday was the turnover count: Brown committed four, but the overall production compensated for it.

Brown wasn’t as impactful from a scoring standpoint on the second night of a back-to-back following a 41-point outburst during Saturday’s narrow loss to the Timberwolves, but he still found a way to make an all-around impact in this one. He deferred to a red-hot Payton Pritchard throughout the night and recorded the fourth triple-double of his career by stepping up as a rebounder and facilitator. He also got to the free throw line for a whopping 16 attempts. He’s delivered second-round value from a fantasy standpoint over the past three games, averaging 31 points, 9.3 rebounds, 2.7 steals and one block during that span.

Brown won the battle but lost the war. He was able to outscore Anthony Edwards 41-39, but the Celtics ended up coming up short on the scoreboard. Brown matched his season high for scoring, which allowed him to exceed 30 points for a third straight game. He also set a new career high for steals. This was arguably Brown’s best game of the season, and he’ll look to stay hot against the Cavaliers on Sunday, which will be the second night of a back-to-back.

Brown hasn’t missed a game all season and that streak will continue Saturday. The 29-year-old small forward is set to play after being listed as questionable with a back injury. Brown is coming off a 33-point performance in Wednesday’s win over the Pistons.

Brown recorded a robust stat line in the Celtics’ three-point victory, but the efficiency was lacking for managers who require more in that regard. In addition to the low field-goal percentage, the Celtics wing was responsible for a game-high six turnovers. That category is why Brown is ranked just outside the top-75 in nine-cat formats, as he’s averaging 3.8 turnovers per game. With Jayson Tatum (Achilles) out and the Celtics’ rotation being far more dependent upon Brown, the turnovers aren’t a surprise. As long as he does the other things well, as was the case on Wednesday, there shouldn’t be too much concern over the occasional inefficient night.

Brown eclipsed the 30-point plateau for the eighth time this season, pouring in 21 of them after halftime as Boston shot over 60 percent and hung a season-high 138 points on a depleted Orlando squad playing the back end of a back-to-back. The 29-year-old franchise cornerstone buried a pair of threes and added two late layups to fend off a surprising late push from Orlando’s second unit. The Celtics led by as many as 26 before the Magic trimmed it all the way down to six in the final minute. The Celtics are off until Wednesday when they kick off a three-game week against the Pistons before facing the powerhouse Timberwolves and Cavaliers.

Brown eclipsed the 25-point plateau for the third consecutive contest and 11th time in 16 games to open the season, but he got into foul trouble in the second half which extinguished any chance Boston had to make this one competitive. The 29-year-old offensive catalyst was forced to the bench with just over five minutes left in the third quarter after picking up his fifth foul and Brooklyn immediately ripped off a 21-9 run to take a 15-point lead into the final stanza. Brown will continue to run Boston’s offense, but he’s going to need some help from his supporting cast if they’re going to have any shot at making the playoffs.
