Brown finished Thursday's 119-114 win over Miami with 27 points (9-24 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 7-7 FT) and seven rebounds over 30 minutes.
Brown was cleared to return Thursday from a one-game absence due to lower-back spasms. He wasn't the most efficient from the field and committed five turnovers, but he and Anfernee Simons (39 points) carried the Celtics' scoring load en route to a road win that snapped Boston's two-game losing skid. Brown has scored at least 25 points in six of his last seven outings since Jan. 1, and over that span he has averaged 29.3 points, 7.3 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 2.9 threes over 35.5 minutes per game, though he's connected on just 43.9 percent of his field-goal attempts over that span.

Celtics' Jaylen Brown: Doubtful for Monday
Rotowire
Brown is doubtful to play Monday versus the Pacers due to lower-back spasms.
It appears that Brown will be unavailable Monday evening, but the good news is that after Monday's game, the Celtics won't play again until Thursday, so Brown will have plenty of time to rest his back. Sam Hauser (hamstring) is questionable for Monday, and if he's forced to join Brown on the inactive list, Hugo Gonzalez could get the start, while Payton Pritchard and Derrick White will do the heavy lifting on offense.

This was a strong start to the new month after Brown averaged 31.7 points, 6.5 rebounds, 5.4 assists and 1.2 steals through 10 December appearances.
