Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown will miss time and could be sidelined through the All-Star break with a facial fracture, The Athletic reported Wednesday night.

Brown sustained the injury earlier Wednesday against the visiting Philadelphia 76ers when he collided with teammate Jayson Tatum in an attempt to grab an offensive rebound. Brown was taken to the locker room with 1:27 remaining in the second quarter and was ruled out for the remainder of the game at halftime.

Prior to exiting, Brown had just four points, two rebounds and three assists on 2-of-9 shooting in 18 minutes.

In 48 starts this season, Brown is averaging 26.5 points, 7.0 rebounds and 3.2 assists while shooting 48.7 percent from the field. He was named an All-Star for the second time in his seven-year career, all with Boston.

Derrick White, Sam Hauser and Malcolm Brogdon could see increased roles during Brown’s absence.
