The Boston Celtics are on the verge of wrapping up another successful NBA regular season, sitting at 59–21 with two games to go on the schedule. There is, however, one primary concern about the defending champs as the postseason nears: the health of Jaylen Brown, reigning Finals MVP and potential All-NBA selection this year.
For most of the season Brown provided his usual high-level two-way play for the Celtics, but in recent weeks was listed on the injury report with a "right knee posterior impingement." As the season has wound down the All-Star has looked more and more affected by the injury. He explained to reporters last week how he's working with the medical staff to handle it and the importance of finding ways to be effective despite playing banged-up.
