The Detroit Pistons punctuated their recent winning ... The Celtics' loss came without former NBA Finals MVP Jaylen Brown, who spoke disparagingly about the Pistons prior to the 2024-2025 NBA ...
After missing part of the second half of Tuesday's win in Toronto, Jaylen Brown was one of four players listed on the Celtics' latest injury report.
The Detroit Pistons were once the laughingstock of the NBA, as one of the worst teams in the league. On Wednesday, the Pistons completed their 8th win in a row, with their latest victory over reigning NBA champs Boston Celtics.
Jaylen Brown, Kristaps Porzingis and Sam Hauser are questionable for the Boston Celtics on Wednesday against the Detroit Pistons.
Brown reportedly took a knee to the thigh early in the third quarter of Tuesday night's win against the Raptors.
With Jaylen Brown out and the Pistons rested, the Celtics had little left to offer after a valiant second-quarter run. Led by the hot shooting and trash talk of Malik Beasley, the Pistons dominated the Celtics in the second and ran away to a 117-97 win.
