With only eight regular-season games left, the Boston Celtics, led by Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, and their team, continue to demonstrate their dominance in the Eastern Conference. They seem ready to challenge the defending NBA champions, the Denver Nuggets, in a potential seven-game series.

Having already secured a playoff spot and holding onto the top position in the East, the Celtics are focused on maintaining their momentum heading into the NBA playoffs. Their recent strong performances, winning eight of their last ten games, highlight their determination.

However, the team faces a setback as they approach the final stretch of the regular season. Jaylen Brown, a key player in their lineup, is sidelined due to a hand injury.

According to Noa Dalzell of SB Nation, Brown will miss Monday’s game against the Charlotte Hornets, as reported by Legion Hoops.

Brown’s absence is concerning given his significant impact on the team’s success this season. With the playoffs approaching and the first round set to start on April 20, the Celtics are eager to have all their key players healthy and ready to play.

Currently averaging 23.2 points, 5.5 rebounds, 3.6 assists, and 1.2 steals per game, Brown has been an outstanding performer, with career-high shooting percentages of 50.2% from the field and 35.8% from three-point range.

If Jaylen Brown’s injury persists into the postseason, the Boston Celtics may find themselves in a challenging position, with strong opponents like the Milwaukee Bucks, New York Knicks, and Miami Heat looking to exploit any weaknesses.
