Originally posted on Athlon Sports | By Robert Marvi | Last updated Mar 24, 2025 9:13 PM ET

The Boston Celtics have won 10 of their last 11 games and are looking to continue that momentum for the rest of the regular season and into the playoffs. They hold a 52-19 record and are firmly in second place in the Eastern Conference, and they will visit the Sacramento Kings on Monday evening.

Jaylen Brown has been dealing with a bone bruise in his knee lately and has missed the last three games for the defending NBA champions. But the team issued some good news on Monday regarding his status for its game against the Kings.

He will reportedly be available to play in Sacramento.

Brown is averaging 22.8 points a game this season, but he's shooting 45.9% from the field and 31.6% from 3-point range, and both numbers are well below par for him.

In fact, so far in March, he's down to 19.2 points per game on 39.6% from the field and 22.2% from downtown.

Brown, of course, was named the MVP of last season's NBA Finals. In that championship series, he put up 20.8 points a contest as the Celtics got past the Dallas Mavericks in five games to claim their 18th Larry O'Brien Trophy.

They're looking to win back-to-back world titles for the first time since 1969, which was the legendary Bill Russell's final season in the league.
