The truth about Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown

All-NBA Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown is a highly polarizing player in the NBA, with opinions varying on the strength of his skills and overall value to his team. Brown has been a consistent scorer in his time with the Celtics, averaging around 24 points per game over the last several seasons with strong 3-point shooting percentages in four of his seven seasons in the league. He’s made two All-Star teams and an All-NBA team, and his best scoring season was his most recent one, where he averaged 26.6 points per game.

However, despite his statistical profile and on-court successes, Brown still faces criticism, primarily due to some glaring flaws in his game that appear unresolved. The most evident issue is his handling of the ball, especially his inability to use his left hand effectively in traffic.

The folks behind the “Terranova Basketball Study” YouTube channel took a deep dive into Brown’s true value as a player.

Check it out in the clip embedded above.
