Two Celtics Stars Face Game 4 Injury Drama…
ORLANDO — The Boston Celtics are cooking up some basketball drama hotter than a pepperoni pizza in the fourth quarter oven! Jrue Holiday’s hamstring has decided to go on vacation, benched him from the Sunday showdown, making it feel like a day at the circus without the trapeze artist! Meanwhile, Jaylen Brown’s knee is acting like it’s auditioning for a soap opera, keeping him questionable and putting fans on a roller coaster ride of emotions.
Brown’s knee, that seems to have the personality of a shy turtle, has been giving him grief since February, and he’s been juggling knee injections like they were basketballs at a game-day carnival. As if that wasn’t enough drama for a Saturday matinee, Brown’s stats are looking shinier than a brand-new game ball, with averages making the baskets blush at 23.7 points per game! Meanwhile, he’s aiming from beyond the arc like he’s got a GPS on each shot, with a splashing 54.5% from downtown.
Over at the Holiday station, Jrue couldn’t fashionably flaunt his skills in Game 3 because his right hamstring decided it wanted a front-row seat instead. Our guy Derrick White is all set to don the superhero cape, stepping up to play like it’s an arcade game on cheat mode! Meanwhile, Coach Mazzulla keeps his thoughts hush-hush like a magician with a secret up his sleeve, saying Holiday is day-to-day. We just need some basketball wizardry and who knows, the Celtics might pull off an even more epic showdown against the Magic!
