Celtics likely out of Brown hunt

By giving $1.5 million of their $5.36 million mid-level exception to Eddie House, the Celtics probably fell out of range for free agent power forward P.J. Brown, who as of last week was being courted especially hard by Dallas. “There’s several things going on regarding P.J.,” said Mark Bartlestein, his agent. “The Celtics are a little limited right now in what they can do. But I think he would like to stay close to his kids.”
