As the Boston Celtics prepare for their home matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday, the latest injury report features Jaylen Brown and Nikola Vucevic. Brown is listed as probable to suit up despite a left quad contusion. Vucevic will miss the game as he continues to recover from a right ring finger fracture that required surgery on March 7 and keeps him sidelined until mid-April. Jayson Tatum will once again be available as he continues upping his conditioning.
The Celtics enter the matchup having won four straight games. Brown is on a heater, averaging over 30 points per game over his last five. On the season, JB is averaging 28.5 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 5.2 assists per game over 63 appearances. He has shot nearly 48 percent from the field, providing steady scoring and playmaking that has helped keep the Celtics maintain contender status with a 47-23 record and a second place position in the Eastern Conference.
Tatum is now averaging 19.6 points and 8.6 rebounds per contest in the seven games he’s played this season. His recent outings indicate progress in regaining rhythm and form.
