Jaylen Brown to miss the rest of the Celtics regular season games after cutting his hand on glass

Celtics All-Star Jaylen Brown says he will miss the final two regular-season games but expects to be ready to go in time for the start of the playoffs after cutting a finger on his shooting hand in a bizarre accident at home.

Brown told reporters Friday night before a game against Toronto that he cut his hand on a glass vase Thursday night and had to get five stitches. 

He was wearing a protective wrap and expects to be restricted for at least the next two days.

According to The Athletic’s Jared Weiss, Brown said he cut his hand ‘picking up a glass vase he knocked over while watering his plants on Thursday.’ 

Marcus Smart (neck spasms) and Malcolm Brogdon (back) also sat out Friday.

Coach Joe Mazzulla said he doesn’t expect any of the injuries to be anything that lingers heading into the postseason.

Brown was named to his second All-Star team this season – his second such selection in the past three seasons.

He averages the second-most points per game on the Celtics – with 26.6 per game alongside 6.9 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.1 steals per game.

Boston, which is locked into the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs, hosts Atlanta on Sunday in its regular-season finale.
