Jaylen Brown is Fine for Monday

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (thumb) will play in Monday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He's missed each of the last two games due to a right thumb issue.

Atlanta Hawks center Alex Len (back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors. This marks the fourth game in a row that Len has missed due to lower back pain.

Washington Wizards guard Jordan McRae (ankle) will play in Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He was removed from the injury report after getting in limiting practice over the weekend.
