The Boston Celtics might have gotten Jayson Tatum back in the lineup sooner than expected, but that doesn’t mean Jaylen Brown has slowed down.

Since Tatum’s return (and excepting a game he played less than 15 minutes after being ejected against the Spurs), Brown is averaging 27.6 points-per-game and he posted 41 in a 120-112 win over Phoenix. Brown went 10-for-20 from the field and a staggering 19-for-21 from the free-throw line. He added seven rebounds and six assists in the victory as the Celtics try to catch the Detroit Pistons for the top-seed in the Eastern Conference.

Which brings us to today’s quiz. Monday’s performance was Brown’s sixth 40-point game of the season and 17th of his career. With that being said, can you name the active NBA players with at least 10 40-point games?

Good luck!
