Jaylen Brown is dealing with a few lingering injuries heading into the Celtics’ final stretch of the regular season.
Joe Mazzulla and the Celtics elected to sit Brown for Friday’s game against the Sacramento Kings. But, even with the league’s best record already clinched and six games left (including Friday), it seems resting Brown for this entire stretch isn’t in the cards.
“He made it through [Wednesday’s] game well. I think it’s just managing the guys throughout the rest of the season,” Mazzulla said before Friday’s matchup.
