Yahoo Sports

Jaylen Brown reflected on this Celtics team Wednesday night after hitting a franchise milestone.

Jaylen Brown earned a new spot in the Celtics franchise record books on Wednesday night, passing Dave Cowens in the first half to move into 10th place on the Celtics’ all-time scoring list. Brown finished with a game-high 32 points in Boston’s 120-99 victory over the Warriors and has now tallied 13,202 points in his 10-year career in Boston, putting him just behind Jayson Tatum in the all-time rankings. “Yeah.

I mean, I’m very grateful,” Brown said after Wednesday’s win. “A lot of legends on that list who made big contributions to the Celtics, but also to the game of basketball. So I’m very humbled and very grateful to be in the position I’m in.

” Jayson Tatum spoke about the partnership of the duo while watching Brown put together another stellar performance in the best season of his career. “Obviously, congrats to him,” Tatum said. “It just goes to show the dedication, the commitment that he’s made to his craft and getting better every single year.

This is Year 10 for him, nine for me, so it’s just been cool to see. I’ve seen him the last nine years develop and just get better each and every year and turn into the player he is now, and it’s just cool when you get rewarded for the work that you put in. ” Brown’s consistency this season has not only helped him rise in Boston’s record books after getting drafted at No.
