Expected to play vs. Grizzlies
Braun is probable for Wednesday's game against Memphis due to a left ankle sprain.
Analysis
Braun also carried a probable designation leading up to Monday's game against the Cavs and was ultimately able to suit up, so he'll presumably have a good chance to take the court Wednesday in his team's final game before the All-Star break. Braun is averaging 10.5 points, 4.0 rebounds and 3.0 assists in four showings since returning from a 12-game absence due to the ankle injury.

Logs second-highest total of season
Braun amassed 20 points (7-13 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and two assists in 32 minutes during Monday's 119-117 loss to Cleveland.
Analysis
Braun got his stat line to acceptable levels after struggling through his first three appearances following a 12-game absence. He's showing no ill effects from the ankle injury that sidelined him, and Monday's effort was a positive indicator that he'll return to his usual level of production heading into the All-Star break.

Cleared to face Bulls
Braun (ankle) is available for Saturday's game against Chicago.
Analysis
Braun was previously considered probable, so his availability doesn't come as much of a surprise. He has played in two games since returning from a 12-game absence, playing 26 and 43 minutes, respectively. He's shot 2-for-6 from the field in both outings.
