Jaylen Brown had a minor scare in a game that didn’t give the Celtics many in their 112-99 Game 1 victory over the Hawks.
In his first game back since suffering a cut on his shooting hand, the Celtics’ star wing said that his cut split open during Saturday’s game.
“It’s fine,” Brown said of his hand, which had some wrapping around it when he spoke with reporters. “It split open during the game, but it’s fine now.”
Brown continued to downplay the wound during his press conference.
“I think it’s going to be all right,” Brown said.
