Jaylen Brown Injury: Sitting out Friday
Brown (hamstring/knee) will not play Friday against the Kings, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.
Brown was listed as doubtful heading into the day while he manages left hamstring tightness and a right knee contusion, so his absence Friday is fully expected. The Celtics haven't indicated that either injury is a major concern for Brown, but his status will still need to be monitored leading up to Sunday's game against the Bucks. His absence Friday should open up elevated minutes for Hugo Gonzalez and Baylor Scheierman, while Derrick White, Payton Pritchard and Anfernee Simons could see increased usage.
