Celtics guard Malcolm Brogdon is a game-time decision for Game 6 of Eastern Conference finals

Malcolm Brogdon’s status for Game 6 of the Eastern Conference finals remains in question less than two hours before tipoff.

Brogdon will test the elbow on his shooting arm during warmups of Game 6 and see if he can play, Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla told reporters roughly 90 minutes before tipoff.

“He’s gonna warm up, do his shooting time and see how he feels from there,” Mazzulla said.

The veteran point guard suffered an elbow injury in Game 1 that reportedly ended up being a partial tear of the tendon. Brogdon noticeably struggled with his shot in the ensuing games, shooting 5-for-22 from the field in Games 2-5.
