Jaylen Brown has yet to shake the knee injury that hindered him for the final two months of the regular season. But he believes he’s getting close. The Celtics star shared a positive update on his status ahead of Boston’s second-round playoff series against the New York Knicks.

Jaylen Brown and Jrue Holiday received important injury updates for Game 5 of the Magic vs. Celtics series. The Boston Celtics will host the Orlando Magic in Game 5 of their playoff series on Tuesday night. Jaylen Brown and Jrue Holiday have been dealing with injuries, however. Are the Celtics stars playing in Game 5?

Jrue Holiday doesn't rack up a ton of steals or blocks, but there is no player more important to the Celtics' stingy defense -- or their hopes to beat the New York Knicks and repeat as champions.

As Game 4 between the Celtics and the Knicks approaches, Holiday and the Celtics are on the same page regarding what needs to be done.

"Holiday will receive the Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Trophy for his efforts to drive economic empowerment through philanthropy and creative capital deployment. $100K to be donated to the Jrue and Lauren Social Impact Fund (JLH fund)," posted the official social media account of the NBA.
