The Celtics would love to have veteran forward P.J. Brown back next season, but they believe he'll retire, according to The Boston Herald.

"Whatever P.J. wants," Danny Ainge said Friday. "He knows that we’d love to have him back, but he has to want to come back."

The last time Ainge spoke with Brown the forward insisted that he was not coming back.

"I’m not counting on it," Ainge added. "He’s 39 years old, and he has a nice family. He was a great contributor in our winning, but he said he doesn’t want to play."
