Brown (hamstring) will not play Wednesday against the Celtics, Tim Bontemps of ESPN reports.

A sore left hamstring will cost Brown a second straight game after being held out of Monday's win over the Cavs. With two more off days arriving Thursday and Friday, the Nets are likely exercising some level of caution with the Miami product, who started 14 straight games leading up to Monday's absence. Expect DeAndre' Bembry to be the top candidate to make another start in Brown's place Wednesday.
