Brown's facial fracture was elbowed by partner Tatum during the scrimmage


After Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown, 26, was injured after colliding with his offensive partner, forward Jayson Tatum, 24, against the Philadelphia 76ers yesterday, the Celtics officially announced today. In the released injury report, it was confirmed that Brown's facial fracture injury will be out for a period of time, and the return schedule has not yet been announced.


Brown was in a game against the Philadelphia 76ers . He missed a three-pointer and rushed forward to make up the rebound. But at this time, Tatum entered from the opposite side and collided with Brown and grabbed the ball. During this period, his elbow hit Brown's left face, which made Brown fall to the ground instantly and covered his face in pain. Then Brown clutched his left face and left the field for preliminary diagnosis and treatment in the locker room.

The team pointed out that he suffered a contusion on the left side of his face, so Brown did not play again in that game. Brown played 18 minutes before retiring from injury, scoring 4 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists in a 106-99 victory over the 76ers. The NBA prospect averaged 27 points and 7.1 rebounds per game this season before the injury.


And as Brown will be absent for a period of time due to injury, the team has initially predicted that Brown, who was selected as the Eastern Reserve for the NBA All-Star Game this season, is likely to miss the second All-Star Game of his NBA career. The All-Star Game will start on February 20.


Brown will also undergo further injury checks in the near future, when the Celtics will update the injury report and announce the specific recovery time. However, it can be confirmed that Brown will miss tomorrow's regular season game against the Charlotte Hornets at home.
