Won't return Tuesday Brown (ankle) won't return to Tuesday's game against the Hawks, Brian Robb of The Springfield Republican reports.

Impact Brown suffered the injury early in the first quarter of Tuesday's game on a drive to the basket. The full extent of the injury may be announced in the coming days after team doctors get a better look, but Brown should certainly be considered questionable for Thursday's game against the Grizzlies. If he's forced to miss any time, more minutes could be in store for Aaron Nesmith, Payton Pritchard and Grant Williams.

Dishes eight assists in loss Brown closed Sunday's 128-107 loss to the Pacers with 23 points (10-16 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-4 FT), four rebounds, eight assists and one steal across 35 minutes.

Impact Brown was Boston's most productive scorer, with Jayson Tatum struggling to the tune of 7-for-22 from the field. Although solid from beyond the arc Sunday, Brown has regressed to a 34.7 percent clip from deep this season despite a career-high 5.0 attempts per game. Connecting on just 27.3 of his treys over 11 February contests, Brown will look to improve that figure against a Hawks team ranked in the league's bottom third for opponent three-point shooting.

Solid performance Thursday Brown closed with 18 points (6-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-8 FT), one rebound, six assists, one block and one steal in 30 minutes during Thursday's 129-106 win over the Nets.

Impact Brown struggled a bit from the three-point line Thursday, but his 18 points were good enough for second on the team in scoring behind only Jayson Tatum (30 points). There was some initial concern when Brown came up grabbing his left wrist after landing on it during the fourth quarter, but it sounds like it wasn't anything serious. The 25-year-old is averaging 23.6 points, 6.4 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.1 steals across 23.6 minutes per game this season.
