fully participated Monday and Tuesday<\/a>, according to head coach Joe Mazzulla.<\/p>\n\u201cHe went through practice,\u201d Mazzulla said after Tuesday\u2019s session. \u201cWe\u2019ll see how he feels tomorrow, but he was able to go through everything today.\u201d<\/p>\n
Brown met with the media after Monday\u2019s practice and said he felt \u201cgreat.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI wasn\u2019t too concerned (about the injury),\u201d the four-time All-Star wing said. \u201cI think it was nothing, so I was fine. Maybe a little tweak, but nothing crazy.\u201d<\/p>\n
Asked whether he expected to play against the Sixers, Brown replied: \u201cWe\u2019ll see.\u201d<\/p>\n
If Brown can\u2019t go Wednesday night, the Celtics\u2019 most likely starting lineup would feature Derrick White, Payton Pritchard, Sam Hauser, Chris Boucher and Neemias Queta. Mazzulla plans to be fluid with his lineups this season, however, and has said his starters could change from game to game.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have a lot of depth and have a lot of guys, and I think we have the ability to play a much of different ways,\u201d the coach said. \u201c\u2026 Because of the type of guys that we have, because we can go 10, 11 deep, it could be a combination of what\u2019s going well that night versus what gives us the best chance versus that matchup. But it\u2019s going to change a lot.\u201d<\/p>\n
Reserve wings Josh Minott, Jordan Walsh, Baylor Scheierman and Hugo Gonzalez could see their minutes increase if Brown is sidelined.<\/p>\n
The only players listed on Boston\u2019s first injury report of the new season were Brown and Tatum, who was ruled out for Wednesdsay\u2019s game as he continues his recovery from Achilles surgery.<\/p>\n
