Celtics' Jaylen Brown: Starts at small forward Wednesday

Brown will draw the start at small forward for Wednesday's preseason finale against the Knicks, Jay King of MassLive.com reports.

Analysis:

Brown has shown off his athleticism throughout the preseason schedule and will have the opportunity for another extended look Wednesday, as usual starter Jae Crowder will get the night off for rest. Once the regular season arrives, Brown will move to the bench, but he's likely shown enough off in the preseason to earn a regular role in coach Brad Stevens' rotation.
