Jaylen Brown (born October 24, 1996, Marietta, Georgia, U.S.) is an American basketball player known for his all-around athleticism, stalwart defense, and aggressive offensive style. Brown, a shooting guard and small forward, was drafted by the Boston Celtics in 2016, and over the following 10 years he and costar Jayson Tatum formed a potent duo who made Boston into a perennial championship contender. In 2024 Brown propelled the team to its record-setting 18th NBA championship and also was named NBA Finals Most Valuable Player. However, two years later Brown was traded to the Philadelphia 76ers.
