Boston's Jayson Tatum Gets Better of Former Teammate Brown; George Drops 36 as Celtics Top 76ers
ESPN reported the players have not spoken since June, with Tatum recording 13 points in the first half to help the Celtics secure a 62-51 lead.
- On Tuesday, the Boston Celtics defeated the Philadelphia 76ers 123-101 in Philadelphia, with Jayson Tatum outplaying former teammate Jaylen Brown in their first matchup as opponents.
- Boston traded Jaylen Brown to the Philadelphia 76ers this offseason for Paul George, ending their nine-season partnership. Brown expressed frustration with the move, fueling speculation about his fractured relationship with Tatum.
- During an awkward pregame interaction, Tatum attempted to greet Brown with a tap on the arm and chest, which Brown ignored. Tatum later told reporters, "I'm on my side. So it's nothing to talk about."
- Social media users criticized Brown's pregame behavior, with one commenter calling him a "child." Brown also struggled with early foul trouble, picking up four fouls and finishing with just 13 points.
- The Boston Celtics and Philadelphia 76ers will meet three more times this season, with Brown scheduled to return to Boston on January 21. The rivalry between Eastern Conference contenders promises continued intrigue.
