Jaylen Brown warns ‘disrespectful’ rival players ‘s**t won’t work’
The The Boston Celtics were warming up most recently, he is currently 18-11 after Monday night’s comeback win over the Indiana Pacers. Jailen Brown submitted another big stat line in this one, scoring 31 points with nine rebounds in the win.
Brown had the best individual season of his career so far in 2025-26, as many expected with Jayson Tatum out due to injury.
Recently, Brown was on a live broadcast and seized the opportunity to get back at some of the players around the league who he claims have tried to get under his skin so far this year.
“It’s getting really disrespectful … the last 3 out of 4 games … Some guy on the other team is trying to get a reaction,” Brown said, per Daniel Donabedian of ClutchPoints on X, formerly Twitter.
“That s**t won’t work, keep it up,” he added.
Brown has always been known as a top 20 player in the NBA, but this year he has taken his game to a new level, scoring the ball more than ever before and also showing some playmaking abilities that many fans may not have been familiar with.
As a result, the Celtics have steadily climbed the Eastern Conference leaderboard after a shaky start to the season, and some fans now give them a legitimate chance to compete with the likes of the New York Knicks and Detroit Pistons in the Eastern Conference, even with Tatum out.
The big question now is whether the Celtics front office will look to make any moves to win in what most expected to be a down year due to Tatum’s injury.
Either way, the Celtics will take the floor next on Friday night for a rematch against the Pacers on the road.
