Celtics' Jaylen Brown: Pours in 34 in Thursday's loss
Rotowire
Brown finished with 34 points (10-25 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 13-14 FT), six rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals across 41 minutes during Thursday's 104-102 loss to Oklahoma City.
In a potential NBA Finals preview, Brown didn't have Jayson Tatum (Achilles) at his side but nearly pulled off a road upset himself, as no other Celtic scored more than 14 points. Brown has delivered at least 20 points in 14 of 15 games since the beginning of February, falling short in the 15th only due to an early ejection. Over that stretch, the 29-year-old forward is averaging 25.6 points, 8.1 boards, 6.1 assists, 1.6 threes and 0.9 steals.

Celtics' Jaylen Brown: Teases triple-double in win
Rotowire
Brown finished Sunday's 109-98 victory over the Cavaliers with 23 points (7-17 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 8-9 FT), nine rebounds and eight assists in 38 minutes.
The 29-year-old wing came close to producing his fourth triple-double of the season, and the seventh of his career. So far, the return of Jayson Tatum hasn't impacted Brown's numbers, but Tatum isn't quite seeing a full workload yet, having topped out at 27 minutes in his first two games of the season. Brown, meanwhile, has scored at least 20 points in 24 straight contests, and since the beginning of February he's delivered 26.3 points, 8.7 boards, 6.0 assists, 1.8 threes and 0.8 steals a game.

Celtics' Jaylen Brown: Well-rounded effort in win
Rotowire
Brown had 24 points (9-17 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-6 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists and two steals across 33 minutes during Friday's 120-100 victory over the Mavericks.
Brown put together a relatively efficient performance in this one, leading the Celtics in scoring while extending his streak of 20-plus-point outings to 23. The star forward also tied the game-high marks in steals and assists, dishing out at least seven dimes for a fourth straight game. While Brown's usage may take a slight hit due to Jayson Tatum returning to action, the former should still operate as Boston's top option on the offensive end as Tatum is eased back in.

Celtics' Jaylen Brown: Out Monday with illness
Rotowire
The Celtics have ruled out Brown for Monday's game against the Bucks due to a non-COVID illness.
Brown ended Sunday's 114-98 victory over Philadelphia with 27 points (9-17 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 7-7 FT), eight rebounds and eight assists across 38 minutes, but he's evidently feeling under the weather coming out of that game and will get a chance to rest up and recuperate for the second leg of the Celtics' back-to-back set. With Brown sitting, the Celtics will have more usage available for Derrick White and Payton Pritchard, while Baylor Scheierman and Hugo Gonzalez could see upticks in playing time.

Celtics' Jaylen Brown: Comes close to triple-double
Rotowire
Brown ended Sunday's 114-98 victory over Philadelphia with 27 points (9-17 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 7-7 FT), eight rebounds and eight assists across 38 minutes.
Brown carried the Celtics once again -- as he's done pretty much all season long -- while finishing just two boards and two assists away from posting a triple-double. The star forward continues to have a career-best season in 2025-26, averaging a loaded line of 26.6 points, 9.8 rebounds and 8.0 assists per game since the All-Star break. He needs to do a better job taking care of the ball since he's averaging 3.6 turnovers over that span, but with Brown delivering elite numbers across all categories, he's posted first-round value across all formats. Fantasy managers will live with that amount of turnovers as long as he continues to produce at this rate.

Celtics' Jaylen Brown: Productive in blowout win
Rotowire
Brown registered 28 points (9-12 FG, 4-4 3Pt, 6-10 FT), nine assists, seven rebounds, two steals and one block over 30 minutes during the Celtics' 148-111 win over the Nets on Friday.
Brown entered Friday's game having connected on just 34.7 percent of his field-goal attempts over his last two outings, and it looked like he was going to have another rough night after missing his first four free-throw attempts and each of his first two tries from the field. However, Brown settled in after a slow start, scoring 26 of his 28 points across the second and third quarters and co-leading the Celtics in scoring with Nikola Vucevic while also leading the team in assists. Brown has embraced his role as the clear No. 1 option this season, though Jayson Tatum has been progressing ahead of schedule in his recovery from a torn right Achilles. It will be interesting to see what Brown's usage would look like if Tatum is indeed cleared to return to NBA action this season.

Celtics' Jaylen Brown: Not listed on injury report
Rotowire
Brown (knee) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game in Denver, Zack Cox of the Boston Herald reports.
Brown rested on the front end of this back-to-back set, but he'll be back in action Wednesday evening with his usual workload. Brown's return should result in Ron Harper heading back to the second unit, and there will be fewer shots available for Sam Hauser and Baylor Scheierman.

Rotowire
Brown won't play in Tuesday's game against the Suns due to a bruised right knee, Jay King of The Athletic reports.
Tuesday is the front end of a back-to-back, so it's possible the Celtics have an eye toward Brown being able to suit up for Wednesday's showdown against the Nuggets. Baylor Scheierman and Sam Hauser should see more playing time and are both worthy of streaming consideration Tuesday.

Celtics' Jaylen Brown: Nursing bruised knee
Rotowire
Brown is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Suns due to a right knee contusion, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.
Brown didn't show any signs of the injury impacting his play Sunday, as he cruised to a 32-point day in a win over the Lakers. However, he's in jeopardy of sitting Tuesday after being added to the injury report. Brown will presumably test the knee during shootaround and in pre-game warmups to see if he's able to run the floor in Phoenix.

Brown didn't have the most efficient performance from the field and committed a team-high five turnovers. Even so, he was the game's leading scorer while attempting double-digit free throws for the 14th time this season, and he finished second on the Celtics in both assists and rebounds. Brown is putting together the best season of his NBA career and has averaged 28.1 points, 8.6 rebounds, 5.0 assists, 1.7 threes and 0.9 steals over 33.6 minutes per game since Feb. 1.

Brown will hit the sidelines for the second leg of a back-to-back due to a sore right knee and tightness in his left hamstring, and for now, he should be considered questionable for Friday's game against the Heat.

Rotowire
Brown is doubtful for Wednesday's game in Houston due to left hamstring tightness and right knee soreness, Jay King of The Athletic reports.
The Celtics are playing the second game of a back-to-back set, and Brown is dealing with ailments in two of his appendages, so he'll likely skip Wednesday's game.
