Jaylen Brown admitted he let disputes with Wednesday’s Celtics-Nuggets officiating crew throw him off his game. Though Brown scored a game-high 33 points in Boston’s 114-110 loss at TD Garden, he finished with more turnovers (seven) than free-throw attempts (three), and his effectiveness waned in the fourth quarter. “I mean, they were physical. They got away with a lot,” Brown said of Denver’s defenders. “The refs allowed them to get away with a lot. I’d love to get to the free-throw line a little bit more. I was physical, I was aggressive, I went up strong. I didn’t flop, but…

The Boston Red Sox have made some good moves this offseason, trading for Sonny Gray, Johan Oviedo and Willson Contreras. They’ve improved their rotation and upgraded at first base, especially defensively. What they haven’t done yet, however, is sign a Major League free agent two months into the offseason. After the Colorado Rockies signed veteran pitcher Michael Lorenzen to a one-year deal on Wednesday night, the Red Sox are now the only team that still hasn’t signed an MLB free agent this winter. Given the team’s high payroll, goals and publicly expressed needs, that’s pretty shocking. It’s not for a…

FOXBORO — Patriots players and coaches are expecting an electric environment at Gillette Stadium come Sunday night. The Patriots, as the No. 2 seed in the AFC, have home-field advantage over the Chargers. Head coach Mike Vrabel previously referred to Gillette Stadium as a “viper’s den” when he was coming to Foxboro to play the Patriots in the postseason as head coach of the Titans. Vrabel was asked about those comments on Wednesday. “It’s just got to be a tough place to play in January,” Vrabel said. “If we’re able to get there in January like we are, we have…
FOXBORO — Five Patriots players sat out of practice Wednesday, but only one absence was injury-related. Four Patriots players, C Garrett Bradbury, LB Anfernee Jennings, T Vederian Lowe and T Morgan Moses, are currently dealing with illnesses. DT Khyiris Tonga is still hampered by a foot injury and didn’t practice. Tight end Hunter Henry wasn’t spotted at the beginning of practice but did turn in limited participation.

Despite all the attention that Golden State Warriors megastar Stephen Curry attracts, it’s quite possible that he’s actually underrated from an all-time standpoint. No one will deny that Curry is the greatest shooter ever, but not enough people talk about Curry as the one of the greatest players ever, period. And he certainly is that. With Curry, his value is about more than his basketball skill set. He’s also a phenomenal leader and perfect personality to build a championship team around, thanks to his self-awareness, selflessness, and ability to make everyone around him better. It’s not just the gravity that…

FOXBORO — Patriots outside linebacker Harold Landry, inside linebacker Robert Spillane and left guard Jared Wilson all returned to practice Wednesday after missing the team’s final two regular-season games. Spillane declared himself ready to play in Sunday’s Wild Card playoff game versus the Chargers. He’s been dealing with an ankle injury. Landry has been hampered by a hurt knee since mid-October. Wilson remains in concussion protocol, as evidenced by the red, non-contact jersey he wore at practice. It’s unclear whether either player will be able to play Sunday.

Boston Red Sox chief baseball officer Craig Breslow could be running out of options to upgrade his lineup for the 2026 season. Plan A for Breslow is re-signing third baseman Alex Bregman. Plan B appears to be signing free-agent shortstop Bo Bichette. But what happens if Breslow is down 0-2 in the count? For Plan C, he might decide to give Chaim Bloom another call. The former Red Sox head honcho is now the St. Louis Cardinals president of baseball operations and is said to be shopping infielder Brendan Donovan.
