How the Boston Celtics can benefit from Jaylen Brown's early surgery
On Wednesday, June 11, the Boston Celtics reported that Jaylen Brown had undergone arthroscopic surgery on his right knee via a press release. The Boston Celtics All-Star was reportedly dealing with a partially torn meniscus. Fortunately, the release noted that Brown should be fully recovered in time for the team's preseason training camp later this year.
Brown's availability is undoubtedly a critical issue for the Celtics. With Jayson Tatum ruled out of the rotation due to an Achilles tendon tear, Brown will likely assume a leading role for the franchise. As such, his decision to undergo surgery so early in the summer is encouraging, as it could allow him to be at his best throughout the 2025-26 campaign.
During a recent episode of the "Taylor Talks Celtics" podcast, hosts Adam Taylor and Billy Calabrese discussed Brown's potential role next season and why surgery could propel him to an All-NBA-level season. The duo also explored the changes he could see in his role and why his point-of-attack defense will be a key factor in the team's chances of success.
