Mikel Brown Jr. Set to Return for Brooklyn Nets Against Boston Celtics

Brooklyn Nets 20-year-old guard Mikel Brown Jr. is set to return to action for Tuesday's game against the Boston Celtics after sitting out Sunday's 136-109 loss to the Indiana Pacers for injury management. Brown Jr. will face a stiff defensive challenge guarding Boston's reserve guard Payton Pritchard as Brooklyn attempts to rebound from an 0-3 start and patch up early-season defensive struggles that head coach Jordi Fernandez labeled unacceptable.
