Jaylen Brown is having a season to remember. The Boston Celtics All-Star has spearheaded Joe Mazzulla's roster to a top-three spot in the Eastern Conference, while also being a perennial top-five MVP candidate and an All-Star selection. Furthermore, he's done all of this while Jayson Tatum is sidelined with injury and a new-look roster full of young and unproven rotation talent.
In 44 games, Brown is averaging 29.4 points, 6.8 rebounds and 4.9 assists, shooting 48.3% from the field and 35.5% from deep. He's leading the Celtics in usage rate, shot attempts and free-throw attempts while also playing some stellar defense on the perimeter. Brown has proven that he can be the leading star on a high-level team.
In a recent video from the "GOAT" YouTube channel, the host dives into Brown's recent production, where his buckets are coming from, and why the rest of the league should be taking note. The host also discusses Brown's overall upside as a lead star and whether he could lead the Celtics toward a deep playoff run.
