Jaylen Brown Returns to Wearing Mask in Game 5 Against Hawks.

Boston Celtics' Jaylen Brown will wear his facemask again in Game 5 against the Atlanta Hawks, despite scoring 31 points without it in Game 4. Brown revealed that he doesn't feel completely comfortable without the mask and wants to protect himself from further injury. He suffered a facial fracture in February and has worn the mask in every game since the NBA All-Star break. While he admitted that ditching the mask gave him a psychological boost, he wants to prioritize safety during the more intense and physical NBA playoffs.
