Game-high 28 points in loss
Although Brown submitted his highest scoring output since a 44-point outburst during the Dec. 27 win over Indiana, his performance wasn't enough to push the Celtics to victory. Through his last six outings, the 28-year-old star forward is averaging 25.0 points, 5.2 rebounds, 4.7 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.7 threes. Brown is shooting a career-low 32.2 percent from long distance on the campaign as a whole, which is a bit of a surprise given the nature of Boston's loaded roster, but he'll have a prime opportunity to build on Friday's showing in Sunday's favorable matchup at home against the 8-31 Pelicans.

Logs 18th double-double of season
Tatum matched his fewest field-goal attempts (13) in a single game this season, which could be attributed to Boston's roster finally being back at full strength. The 26-year-old superstar forward was on an MVP trajectory during the early portion of the campaign amid Kristaps Porzingis' absence, but the former's numbers have tapered off a bit lately. Even so, Tatum is averaging 24.7 points, 9.4 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 1.7 steals and 3.2 threes across his last nine contests and has a soft matchup on tap for Sunday against the Pelicans, who rank 28th in the league in defensive efficiency rating (117.7).
