The Celtics are regaining one potential All-Star just as another hits the bench.
Jayson Tatum is available for Boston’s Thursday night matchup with the Milwaukee Bucks at Fiserv Forum. Jaylen Brown, however, is out.
Brown appeared on the Celtics’ injury report Thursday after spraining his right thumb during the Celtics’ 116-103 loss to the Detroit Pistons at TD Garden on Wednesday. Head coach Brad Stevens says Brown will have more testing done on his injured finger Friday, per the team.
Tatum, on the other hand, was removed from the injury report after appearing on it Tuesday with right knee soreness. He missed the loss to Detroit.
