JB diagnosed with a facial fracture…

[A Future of Stevens]

If only we had traded Jaylen for Kawhi. That guy is made of granite. He doesn't miss games for ANY reason let alone a broken face.

Hope JB gets better. I will say though, masked JB would be pretty awesome to see

He was on track to make all NBA and we could lock him up long term. Hope this doesn’t mess that up.

Yeah, I have that worry too.  I think he’s still on pace to make it, so long as the mask doesn’t inhibit his play too much.  Missing four games isn’t a big deal, and if we finish at the top of the standings that will help also.

With a cool new mask, he can be the modern Rip Hamilton, haha.  He’s already got the sweet mid-range jumper.

Haven’t seen any timelines shared yet, but JB just posted a photo with his face not looking too bad/swollen with the caption “mask incoming”. Hopefully initial projections are accurate and he misses no more time than the ASB.

Really lucky it wasn’t a broken jaw or eye socket. Unfortunate injury, but could have been worse.

I wouldn’t be surprised if he played a few minutes in the All Star Game. His face doesn’t look that bad.

Still no injury news about JB, but All Star replacements were just named for KD, Curry, and Zion, but no JB.

I’m starting to think the injury isn’t as bad as first reported and he’ll be available for the All Star Game, just with a mask. Ideally, I’d love to see him against Milwaukee next Wednesday, too, which would be a week from the injury.

That is good news for JB, although I’d rather he sit out the Bucks game for safety.  I don’t need his broken face anywhere near Jae Crowder’s elbows.  (Also, for your scheduling info, the Bucks game is Tuesday, not Wednesday).

From the Celtics: Jaylen Brown suffered a maxillary facial fracture during the team’s game vs the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday night. His status will be updated next week.

Google machine tells me that maxilla is upper jaw.

Brad reports that he won’t need surgery and likely won’t be out too long. Between this news and him not getting a replacement for All Star yet, I’d say that’s great news.

Masked JB just chucking up 3s in the All-Star Game would be a sight to behold

Heard today that the Celtics' starting 5 have only played together in 6 games this season and only once have they actually started their preferred starting 5.

Best record in the league, anyway.
