- An NBA GM believes Jaylen Brown’s supermax contract is warranted
- The GM praised Brown’s commitment to the team
- Jaylen Brown signed on a five-year, $304 million deal this summer
Forward Jaylen Brown showed that he was an All-NBA player last season, and there’s no doubt that he’s one of the top shooting guards in the league. The Boston Celtics understand how good he is, which is why they rewarded him with a five-year, $304 million contract.
There was a lot of concern about whether Jaylen Brown deserves a supermax deal from the Boston Celtics, as most people would agree that he’s not a superstar talent like players such as his teammate Jayson Tatum. Still, it seems as though some believe that Jaylen Brown is worth that contract. In fact, one NBA GM believes that his commitment to the Boston Celtics means the contract shouldn’t be a concern to the squad.
“If Boston didn’t have the kind of team that could win now, you might have to think twice about what you offer a Jaylen Brown,” The GM said per Adam Taylor of Heavy. “But from everything we’ve seen about him and know, he’s not the kind of person you have to worry about. It looks like he’s invested in the team and not just his stats. That’s more important than people realize when it comes to how a guy’s new contract sits with the rest of the guys in the room.”
It remains to be seen whether Jaylen Brown can make another All-NBA team next season. He is certainly a good player, but with the level of talent that is currently in the league, it is far from a guarantee.
Last season, Jaylen Brown averaged 26.6 points, 6.9 rebounds, and 3.5 assists per game for the Boston Celtics. Hopefully, we see him improve even further next season, and we’ll see what happens in the future.
Jayson Tatum Is Happy The Boston Celtics Retained Jaylen Brown
Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown have accomplished a lot together, making three Eastern Conference Finals appearances and one NBA Finals appearance together. Breaking them up would have been foolish from the Celtics’ standpoint. It is good to see that the team is committed to both of them for the long term, and previously, Jayson Tatum got real on Jaylen Brown’s $304 million supermax contract extension, claiming that it was a “no-brainer”.
Hopefully, we see Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown win a championship together in the future. The team is built for them to do so, and the Boston Celtics will be one of the top contenders next season.
Some Have Doubts About Whether Jayson Tatum And Jaylen Brown Can Win A Title Together
Though the duo has had a lot of success together, there are some who doubt the ability of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown to win a championship together. Patrick Beverley previously explained that Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown cannot win a title together because they have too much of a similar playstyle to one another.
Hopefully, we see Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum prove the haters wrong in the future. At this point for the team, anything below a championship ring is a failure, and we’ll see how they do during this upcoming season.
