Jaylen Brown to Play Against Suns Despite Injury

Jaylen Brown is confirmed to play for the Boston Celtics against the Phoenix Suns despite dealing with right knee issues, aiming to be in top form for the playoffs. Brown has played a crucial role for the Celtics, alongside Jayson Tatum, as they aim for consecutive championships, a feat last achieved by the Warriors in 2017-2018. Previously, the Celtics attempted to trade Brown to secure Kevin Durant, but the deal did not materialize, which in hindsight, looks favorable as they pursue another title. Meanwhile, Brown led the Celtics in scoring during a recent loss to Miami, emphasizing his importance to the team. For the Suns, Bradley Beal returns to the lineup, but Kevin Durant remains out due to injury as they fight for a playoff spot.
