Jaylen Brown (neck) questionable Monday for Celtics
Boston Celtics small forward Jaylen Brown (neck stiffness) is questionable Monday against the Charlotte Hornets.
What It Means:
Brown is dealing with a stiff neck after scoring a season-high 36 points on Sunday. Sam Hauser and Grant Williams should see additional minutes if Brown is unavailable for the second leg of the back-to-back. Derrick White would also stand to benefit.
numberFire's models project Brown for 35.1 minutes and 37.7 FanDuel points on Monday, and he has an $8,500 salary on the Main slate. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Celtics' implied total (118.0) is No. 5 out of 20 active teams today.
