Jaylen Brown has typically shown patience with this younger Boston Celtics team after losses this season. That was not the case Friday, when Brown expressed frustration over the way the Celtics competed while falling to the Brooklyn Nets 113-105 in NBA Cup play. “Come ready to play, or don’t play at all,” Brown said. “That’s my whole thing. We’ve gotta come ready to play. We just went through the motions today. Like, I don’t understand it.” New York Times | Nov. 22, 2025

Law Murray: Celtics outscored Clippers 27-10 off turnovers 10 of those Celtics points came off of the six steals Celtics got. Probably the biggest swing of the game was Jaylen Brown’s steal and 3-point play out of a Clippers timeout in fourth quarter x.com | Nov. 16, 2025

In the easier said than done category, Orlando will look to limit four-time NBA All-Star Jaylen Brown. The former Finals MVP, who’s the engine of Boston’s offense without Jayson Tatum in the lineup, was lethal from the midrange and racked up a game-high 32 points on Friday. “He’s a great player,” said Mosley of Brown. “There’s a reason why he’s an All-Star and All-NBA. That’s who he is and that’s what he’s capable of doing. Now, it’s a matter of what type of shots he’s getting. That’s a team that shoots, normally, (46) threes per game. So, limiting him to the tough contested twos is what you have to do. Now, some of them are tough, some of them are over hands and you just have to tip your hat and work to go the other way. But if we can get him off that 3-point line the way we did (Brown was 1-for-6 from distance), then you give yourself a chance. NBA.com | Nov. 9, 2025
