Boston Celtics wing Jaylen Brown returned to the floor in a 113-107 win against the Milwaukee Bucks on Sunday after missing four games with a strained left hip flexor.

Brown finished with 14 points, five rebounds and four assists in 37 minutes of action.

Brown had been listed as questionable on Boston’s injury report, but Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla said at his pregame availability that the three-time All-Star was available to play.

“No minutes restriction,” Mazzulla said. “He can run, jump, shoot, pass, cut. He’s ready to go.”

Brown entered the game averaging 25.7 points, 7.2 rebounds and 3.8 assists in six games this season after being named the NBA Finals MVP last season.
