BOSTON — Jaylen Brown is wearing his protective face mask again at the start of Game 5 at TD Garden in Boston.
Brown, who had been wearing the mask since suffering a facial contusion in February, removed the mask during Boston’s Game 4 win in Atlanta.
“Maybe it was all in my head,” Brown said following Sunday’s game. “I just needed a different look. I just felt like to start the game I didn’t like the looks that I got so I just needed something to switch it up a little bit. And as soon as I took it off things started to turn around a little bit.
