Jaylen Brown - Drops 27 points in return Brown finished Thursday's 119-114 win over Miami with 27 points (9-24 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 7-7 FT) and seven rebounds over 30 minutes.

Impact Brown was cleared to return Thursday from a one-game absence due to lower-back spasms. He wasn't the most efficient from the field and committed five turnovers, but he and Anfernee Simons (39 points) carried the Celtics' scoring load en route to a road win that snapped Boston's two-game losing skid. Brown has scored at least 25 points in six of his last seven outings since Jan. 1, and over that span he has averaged 29.3 points, 7.3 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 2.9 threes over 35.5 minutes per game, though he's connected on just 43.9 percent of his field-goal attempts over that span.

Anfernee Simons - Explodes for 39 points off bench Simons logged 39 points (13-28 FG, 7-16 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one steal over 34 minutes during the Celtics' 119-114 win over the Heat on Thursday.

Impact Simons gave the Celtics the spark they needed to overcome a slow start to Thursday's game. He started out hot with 11 points in the first quarter, but he made his impact felt most in the fourth by tallying 18 of the Celtics' 36 points in the frame. It was a season-high scoring output for Simons and his most in a game since dropping 40 points against the Spurs on Jan. 26, 2024, while playing for the Trail Blazers. The 2018 first-rounder has become more comfortable in his bench role as the season has progressed, and in eight games since Jan. 1, he has averaged 18.3 points, 3.6 assists, 2.9 rebounds and 4.1 threes over 26.6 minutes per game.
