The Boston Celtics bad luck continues. Celtics forward Jaylen Brown is out for the rest of the season due to a torn ligament in the left wrist. Brown was out the past few games due to a left ankle sprain, but was announced today that an MRI confirmed his torn ligament.
Brown has been averaging a career year for the Celtics averaging 24 points and 6 boards a game, while being selected to his first All-Star selection this season. Reports say that Brown was dealing with the injury around mid April.
The Celtics are currently in seventh place, as it looks like they will be playing a play-in game without their star player.
My Thoughts
Well it’s official, the Celtics are going a full season without having a healthy roster. Losing Brown definitely hurts this teams chances to ever be a dark horse team in the Eastern Conference.
But I think the Celtics were going to be a first round exit either way in my opinion. The Celtics have been really inconsistent all season long, and have never really been healthy. I don’t expect the Celtics to make a run, but we said the same thing in 2018 when the Celtics lost Kyrie Irving for the rest of the season.
It sucks to see this happen to Jaylen Brown, who has been having an amazing season. Brown will hopefully be ready by the time the season starts, but it may take a little while for that to do so.
