Jalen Brown played with a painful injury during the playoffs, he may need surgery

The Boston Celtics faced an injury crisis with Brown and Tatum, regardless of what happened in the Eastern Conference Finals.

The Eastern Conference Finals are between the Indiana Pacers and the New York Knicks. The series went against expectations as most people thought it would be the Cleveland Cavaliers compared to the Boston Celtics.

Jason Tatum made the headline when he ruptured his Achilles tendon in Game 4. He was not alone with injuries as his co-star Jalen Brown had a partially ruptured meniscus.

Brown worked throughout the 2025 playoffs. This was important as he still played at a decent level. He averaged 22.1 points, 7.1 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game while dealing with injuries.

But that means he would have kept pushing if he managed it past the second round. Sooner or later, Meniscus’ tears would have caught up with him. He will become a Celtics star in the 2025-26 campaign, so the recovery period is good for his body.

ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne reported that Brown had been injured since the final weeks of the regular season. This means he goes through the recovery process to determine if surgery is required. The Celtics struggled without Tatum, so losing Brown during the playoffs would have been a nail in the co.

After the Celtics’ elimination against the Knicks, the team advances Brown’s recovery. Surgery should not be that difficult as he has the entire offseason to recover. He can also strengthen his recovery and become healthy in time for training camp.

Brown will become their biggest star as Tatum is likely to miss the 2025-26 campaign. He showed a lot of flashes of being the number one option, but he took a bit of the back seat. The Celtics are still competitive. In particular, there is a more confident brown color after recovering from torn meniscus.

Teams have issues that need to be addressed in particular with contracts. Some insiders even speculated that they could drive the number one overall pick trade in the 2025 draft. This is because the Boston Celtics interviewed a future PickCooper flag candidate.

The Celtics have to give up their incredible assets to do their trade. He will soon boost Dallas Maverick, so that will likely entail Brown. It would give them ready-made Big 3 Brown, Anthony Davis and Kyrie Irving.

Despite the possibility of stimulating the trio’s appetite, it’s difficult to pass Flagg. Duke University’s outstanding has been one of the best prospects in a long time. His defensive potential is at his best, but he also has great potential against attacks. People feel that Nico Harrison will think about the pick deal, but that may not work.

In the meantime, the Celtics will probably change their roster to balance their books. Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis are invaluable to the team, but they have a big deal. Brown and Tatum stay. In other words, Holidays and Porzingis are the best trade candidates.
