Celtics Edge Thunder, Brown's Status Uncertain

0:00It's March 27th. Welcome in. This is Boston Celtics News today, where your team meets AI. I'm Cory with the story. The Boston Celtics picked up a solid win over the defending champion Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday, beating them 1-19 to 1-109. Jalen Brown led the charge with 31 points on 9-17 shooting, along with 8 rebounds and 8 assists. Boston now sits second in the Eastern Conference with a 48-24 record, four gains behind the top-seated Detroit Pistons, and just 10 games left in the season. They host the 41-32 Atlanta Hawks on Friday night at TD Garden, aiming for back-to-back victories. The big question mark is Brown's status after he popped up on the injury report with left-calf tightness listed as questionable. It's not thought to be too serious, but the team might give him a breather to stay safe down the stretch. Derek White is also questionable with a right knee contusion, while Nehemiah's Cater has a right thumb sprain that's making him iffy too.
