Jaylen Brown will miss his first game of the season for the Boston Celtics to attend the funeral of his best friend.

Celtics head coach Brad Stevens said they were hopeful Brown would be able to join them in time for tonight’s game, but, “we did not expect him to be here,” Stevens said.

Boston will also be without Marcus Morris who is in Boston resting his left knee.

Stevens said the starting five tonight will be Kyrie Irving, Marcus Smart, Jayson Tatum, Daniel Theis and Al Horford.
