Phoenix is still down Brooks, who is scheduled for a re-evaluation later this month of his fractured left hand. He could return in late March or early April before the end of the regular season.
Averaging a career-high 20.9 points, Brooks is with the team on the road trip and has been shooting without the protective cast in workouts.
Brooks shoots his jumper with his right hand.
The Celtics didn’t have Jaylen Brown or Jayson Tatum for the earlier matchup.
Brown missed the game with a right knee contusion, but he returned to action and is having an MVP-type season.
Tatum was working his way back from a right Achilles injury suffered in last season’s playoffs. He made his 2025-26 season debut on March 6 against the Dallas Mavericks.
