The Boston Celtics and Jaylen Brown have come to terms on a supermax extension, a new five-year deal worth $304 million dollars that will keep the All-NBA forward in Boston through the ’28-29 season. This represents a record for NBA contracts and helps finally put to bed the persistent trade rumors and questions that have long followed Brown. On Wednesday Brown spoke to the media about his new deal.
The Georgia native spent the past week hosting a multi-day camp at Massachusetts Institute of Technology serving Black and brown high school students in the Boston community. Brown chose to host the press conference announcing his extension there, with dozens of teens assembled to experience the team’s official press conference.
