Another day, another fantastic outing by Jaylen Brown. Boston got revenge for the upset loss to Detroit on Friday and took a narrow win 122-120 after a clutch midrange pullup from Jayson Tatum.

Glad the C's could put that one away in the end. Player of the game?🍀

Despite the clutch performance by JT, it was Jaylen Brown who had himself another incredible and efficient game, leading all scorers with 31 points on 13/16 shooting (5/8 from deep) in addition to 3 assists and 1 rebound.

Jaylen Brown is scorching hot to start the season.

Brown has amassed 196 points over 7 games on 59.8% shooting from the field and 42.5% from 3 point range. His game has looked significantly more polished offensively and has by far been Boston’s most consistent player. Boston will take on Toronto tonight in Tampa Bay (weird, right?) at 7:30 PM EST, here’s hoping we see another win and the continued growth of Jaylen Brown.
