Attention, the WTF news of the day is here. And it concerns… Jaylen Brown!
The small world of sport is ruthless, and some unusual injuries to well-known athletes have remained in the memory: Yoann Gourcuff’s sprained ankle while going for a walk with his dog (ok, the guy was in foam), the double tibia fracture- international rugby player Sylvain Marconnet’s fibula while going skiing two weeks before the Rugby World Cup, or Rajon Rondo’s fall in his shower which broke his hand in 2014.
A stone’s throw from the Playoffs, Celtics player Jaylen Brown entered this very closed club from losing injuries. Jay-B had the wonderful idea of picking up a vase that had just broken, just after watering a plant.. Result of the races, the back of the Clover opened his hand and had to undergo five stitches…
Jaylen Brown cut his hand while picking up a broken glass vase last night and received 5 stitches 😳
He’s expected to be ready for the playoffs

The tile for Boston who skilfully managed its workforce for the Playoffs, second place in the East in its pocket. Especially since the boy was in Olympic form and had just been voted player of the week at the end of March. Well, we still want to reassure Boston fans: Brown should be restored for the first game of the Playoffs, even if his preparation for the main deadline of the season may be a little truncated…
Unlike the mythical Soissons vase, we hope that this story will not last over time for Jaylen Brown, and that it will ultimately not have too many consequences at the end of the C’s season.
