Jaylen Brown lands on Forbes Magazine’s first 30 Under 30 for the Boston area

For over a decade now, Forbes Magazine has printed an annual list of thirty young adults making a difference in the world. This “30 Under 30” has grown to become a yearly benchmark for the country’s most influential up-and-comers. In 2023, the magazine created its first-ever list specifically for the Greater Boston area. That’s where Boston Celtics superstar forward Jaylen Brown comes in.

Forbes selected the 26-year-old Brown for its “30 Under 30 Local Boston Class,” a nod to all the work and advocacy in the community the All-NBA forward has done since being drafted by the Celtics in 2016.
