Jaylen Brown will return to the Celtics‘ lineup on Monday against the Bucks after missing the entire west coast trip, where the Celtics went 1-4.
Here are four things to watch, as the Celtics get some badly needed star power back.
1. Per Cleaning the Glass, the Celtics’ starting lineup misses Brown fiercely. With Rob Williams, Al Horford, Jayson Tatum, and Marcus Smart on the court, the Celtics outscore opponents by 19.6 points per 100 possessions if Brown is the fifth player. They are outscored by 18.6 points per 100 possessions with Dennis Schröder in Brown’s place.
