Celtics star Jaylen Brown looks 'good' despite knee bruise

BOSTON -- Though Boston Celtics All-Star swingman Jaylen Brown declined to go into specifics about the bone bruise in his right knee, the 2024 Finals MVP said after practice Saturday that he felt good and wouldn't be on a minutes restriction heading into Sunday's playoff opener vs. the Orlando Magic.

Brown's knee is perhaps the Celtics' biggest question mark heading into the postseason opener against the seventh-seeded Magic on Sunday at TD Garden in Boston. Brown missed the final three games of the regular season and, as ESPN's Ramona Shelburne reported, received pain injections in his knee to promote healing.
