Celtics forward Jaylen Brown is one of the best two-way players in the league, and he has been a key player for the Boston Celtics over the course of the last few seasons. He is one of the best secondary stars in the league, and there’s no doubt that he has the talent to be a championship-level No. 2 option.
Even though he is in a good situation with the Boston Celtics, it seems as though Jaylen Brown could eventually leave the franchise to be a No. 1 option elsewhere. A Western Conference coach suggested that he is good enough to do so for “half the teams” in the NBA, noting that there has been “some talk” about Brown and the Houston Rockets.
“Jaylen is 26 years old,” a Western Conference coach said, per Sean Deveney of Heavy. “He is maybe the best No. 2 option in the league, or right there with LeBron (James) and AD (Anthony Davis), or Devin Booker-(Kevin) Durant in Phoenix. It is a good thing to be the best No. 2 option, but at his age, I don’t think Jaylen sees it that way. He is good enough to be a No. 1 option for half the teams in the league and maybe he wants that challenge.
“There has been some talk about Jaylen and Houston, he could go to Houston and take that team over, be the face of the franchise. The Rockets would love that. But now, I would advise him—and most vets would advise him — stay where you are and play for rings, it is a lot better than being a top dog on a .500 team. But it is hard to tell a young guy to not test himself if that is what he wants to do.”
It will be interesting to see if Jaylen Brown does in fact leave the Boston Celtics. Though championships are obviously important, it is clear that Brown might prioritize his own individual goals over that, and there’s nothing wrong with doing so.
In the playoffs, Jaylen Brown has averaged 26.1 PPG, 5.4 RPG, and 3.1 APG for the Boston Celtics. The team will need him to continue being consistent to beat the 76ers, and we’ll see what happens in the future.
Paul Pierce Believes Jaylen Brown Is The Best Two-Way Player In The NBA
Previously, we saw Paul Pierce claim that Jaylen Brown is the best two-way player in the NBA, and there’s no doubt that there’s a solid case for that. However, there are definitely some other players that should be in consideration for that title, including his Celtics teammate Jayson Tatum.
Jaylen Brown’s two-way play will be crucial for the Boston Celtics the rest of the way in the playoffs, and he’ll need to be elite for them to win the championship. We will see how the rest of the playoffs go, but first, the Celtics need to get past the 76ers.
