After Boston’s Game 4 win, Brogdon’s MRI revealed that he actually has a torn tendon between his elbow and his wrist that’s causing pain in his forearm. Brogdon has not been playing well understandably, and he was only able to suit up briefly in the first half of Game 5, missing both shots that he took.
