Jaylen Brown (foot) a game-time decision for Celtics Thursday
Boston Celtics small forward Jaylen Brown (foot) will be a game-time decision for Thursday's matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks.
What It Means:
Brown said he's been dealing with an increasing amount of pain in his foot, leading to speculation that it may be plantar fasciitis, which is typically only treated with prolonged rest. Celtics head coach Brad Stevens said Brown will meet with "an orthotics person" to address the problem. Adam Himmelsbach of The Boston Globe tweeted that it "sounds unlikely" Brown will be active Thursday. Marcus Smart, with a fresh new 'do, and Terry Rozier could be in line for more work if Brown sits.
numberFire's models currently expect Brown to play 28.5 minutes and score 24.7 FanDuel points at a cost of $5,000 on Thursday.
