The Boston Celtics are clearly feeling good right now. Out of their 10 games, the franchise has won 8 and is currently on a 5-game winning streak. And as if that weren’t good enough, despite being in an overpowering East, they currently stand as the 1st seed.

A lot of that is due to Jaylen Brown. While there have been a few bad moments from time to time, the man always comes up big when the team needs him to perform. In a way, it almost seems like he has continued his stellar form from the 2022 NBA Finals.
However, the man recently suffered a right adductor sprain, forcing him to miss the big game against the Nets.
Boston fans have been hoping that the injury wasn’t anything too serious, and the man can return tonight to play against the Hornets.
But has the man recovered enough to make that happen?

Unfortunately, however, Brown won’t be able to make it back to the court in time for the game tonight. In fact, as per reports, the man is likely to be out for 1-2 weeks.
However, if there is any game, you’d have the star missing it is LaMelo Ball and the Hornets.
The franchise has been abysmal this season. And while Ball has kept his own performances up, he just can’t help a team that just won’t help itself.
Simply put, this is not a game that the Boston Celtics need Jaylen Brown.
