Given that the Boston Celtics have three National Basketball Players’ Association vice presidents on their roster already, it probably should not surprise one to hear several Celtics players are slated to speak to the government next Monday.
More specifically, star Celtics forward Jaylen Brown and reserve point guard Malcolm Brogdon will be part of a group speaking to the Department of Justice about criminal justice reform according to recent reporting from the Boston Globe’s Gary Washburn. This comes on the heels of Brogdon addressing the United Nations General Assembly about worldwide access to clean water, a cause he has a foundation dedicated to providing in East Africa.
Brown, of course, is also no stranger to using his platform to push for social change, and the pair have teamed up to such ends in the past, such as when Brown drove from Boston to Atlanta to join Brogdon in marches against the police killing of George Floyd in 2020.
