Jaylen Brown earlier this season extended his contract with the Boston Celtics with a deal of $304 Million over the next five years. This marked the richest deal in the history of the NBA. But the player has been in the good books of NBA fans.
Last weekend, Brown participated in the Slam dunk contest at the NBA All-Star games. Fans were disappointed by Brown’s performance as well as the contest. The forward went viral for putting on an average performance and getting good scores. The viewers felt the competition did not live up to their expectations.
But recently, Brown has gone viral for a different reason. During the All-Star break, the star was seen playing basketball with some kids in Boston. In the video, the player is seen struggling to dribble the ball and ends up losing it. NBA fans were shocked by the video.
Brown is currently averaging 22 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 3.7 assists with 49.2 FG% in this season. The Celtics are ranked as the first team in the Eastern Conference standings. They also have the best record (43-12) in the league.
