Jaylen Brown Weighs Surgery After Playoff Injury

Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown played through the NBA playoffs with a partially torn meniscus in his right knee, an injury not fully disclosed until after the team's elimination by the New York Knicks. Brown is considering surgery and is consulting with multiple doctors and the Celtics organization about his treatment options. Team president Brad Stevens remains optimistic about Brown's knee structure and believes rest could help, though surgery is still possible. The Celtics are entering a difficult offseason as co-star Jayson Tatum is expected to miss most or all of next season due to a torn Achilles, heightening concerns about the team's prospects. Brown's decision regarding surgery and his recovery timeline will be pivotal for Boston's outlook, especially with Tatum sidelined. Both Brown's offseason and next season's plans are currently uncertain.
