While you might have to chalk up the 102-96 loss to the Chicago Bulls at TD Garden Monday to an unexpected appearance of the Hospital Celtics, All-Star forward Jaylen Brown was a big reason the loss did not become a stinker of epic proportions.
With Evan Fournier and Robert Williams III already out and Kemba Walker and Marcus Smart joining them, Boston’s notoriously shaky depth was tested. Unfortunately, it came up short after helping drive the team to a six-game win streak.
Brown dug deep and came up with 23 points and 4 rebounds while shooting a sizzling 10-of-15 from the floor and 3-of-4 from beyond the arc, but it wasn’t enough because teammate and fellow star wing Jayson Tatum struggled. The former Duke star went an ugly 3-of-17 from the floor.
