Jaylen Brown, the shooting guard for the Boston Celtics, has been a crucial part of the team’s success in the 2023-24 NBA season. The 27-year-old delivered several dominating performances throughout the season. However, his best performances came in the NBA playoffs, where he showcased exceptional skills at crucial moments for the Celtics.
After the NBA season, Brown, who was recently seen at a party with Bam Adebayo, is enjoying his time in the offseason. Brown posted several Instagram stories about playing basketball with his fans at Rucker Park, a basketball court in Washington. Additionally, Brown was seen holding his unreleased basketball shoes and asking kids questions. He mentioned that the correct answer would win the shoes.
Brown asked, “We’ve got some shoes on the line. What famous basketball player with a big afro played here on this court?” Within seconds, a kid correctly answered “Dr. J” (the nickname of the legendary Julius Erving).
After the correct answer, Brown gave the shoes to the kid. The video garnered a lot of attention from NBA fans, who shared their excitement and reactions in the post’s comment section on X (formerly known as Twitter).
One fan said, “He’d better run home, before someone mugs him for his new kicks.”

Another fan mentioned, “Jaylen really took the shoes off his feet for the kid, I love that.”
