Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown (knee) won't play on Sunday against Charlotte. The right knee injury has been an issue of late. Unfortunately, the problem may not be gone anytime soon, with ESPN's Ramona Shelburne reporting Brown received "pain management injections in an effort to promote healing." The 28-year-old struggled in Tuesday's overtime win over the Knicks, his last time on the floor, finishing with only six points in 22 minutes of work. There will likely be more updates on Brown's condition heading into the C's first-round playoff series. But fantasy managers will undoubtedly be hoping the ailment doesn't affect his ability to suit up in the playoffs as well as the start of the 2025-26 campaign.


Utah Jazz forwardLauri Markkanen (knee)has been ruled out for Sunday's season finale against the Minnesota Timberwolves. After Sunday's matchup, Markkanen will have missed 12 consecutive contests to close out the season due to a left knee injury. Since the start of 2025, the 27-year-old has sat out 28 games going into Utah's season finale. He finishes out the 2024-25 campaign with averages of 19.0 points, 5.9 rebounds, and 1.5 assists in 31.4 minutes per game during 47 appearances.

Utah Jazz guardIsaiah Collier(hamstring) will be out of action for Sunday's season finale against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Collier will miss his third straight game due to a hamstring injury. The 20-year-old rookie averaged 8.7 points, 3.3 rebounds, 6.3 assists and 0.9 steals per game in 71 outings this season. Keynote George will likely be the Jazz starting point guard for Sunday's contest instead of Collier. George posted 12 points, one rebound, eight assists and one steal during his last appearance against the Thunder on Friday.


Utah Jazz forwardKenyon Martin Jr. (illness) will not suit up on Sunday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Due to an illness, the 24-year-old will be out of action for the fifth straight game. Kyle FilipowskiandBrice Sensabaugh will likely see several extra minutes during the Jazz season finale with Martin out and several other players sidelined.

Utah Jazz forwardJohn Collins(ankle) won't suit up for Sunday's regular-season finale matchup with the Minnesota Timberwolves.
