Jaylen Brown’s historic $304 million supermax contract extension elicited quite a bit of criticism from fans of the Boston Celtics in the days after the Georgia native signed the massive deal.
Sticker shock no doubt played a role in that initial wave of criticism.
Since then, a number of renowned NBA analysts have come to Brown’s defense, explaining why the deal makes sense for the Celtics as well as Brown in today’s NBA under the new collective bargaining agreement.
Among those analysts is the host of the eponymous Volume “Hoops Tonight with Jason Timpf” podcast, who recently put together a segment breaking down the finer details of why the move was a wise one for Boston as much as the outspoken forward.
To hear Timpf’s reasoning about Brown’s supermax contract extension for yourself, check out the clip embedded below.
