Are Jaylen Brown and Jrue Holiday going to be healthy as the Boston Celtics take on the New York Knicks at the start of their 2025 NBA Eastern Conference Semifinals second round series set to kick off on Monday (May 5)? For Brown, the Georgia native has been playing on a knee dealing with an impingement and a bone bruise that has plagued him since the midpoint of the 2024-25 regular season.
Holiday has been healing up from a more recent malady, the UCLA alum having strained a hamstring at some point in Boston’s first round series against the Orlando Magic. Could one or both of them be back to close to full health before the start of Game 1 of the next round?
