Celtics Movement

Just two months before joining the 76ers, Jaylen Brown had this to say about his new teammate, Joel Embiid:

"Flopping has ruined our league. Joel Embiid is one of the greatest players that has played basketball, but he flops. He knows it too."

Now, the two will be sharing the same locker room in Philadelphia. 👀

For years, Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown defined Celtics basketball.

Together they reached multiple Conference Finals, won an NBA championship, and became one of the league's most successful duos.

With Jaylen Brown now headed to Philadelphia, the Jays era in Boston has officially come to an end. 🫂

Paul George's next chapter starts in Boston.

Welcome to the Celtics! ☘️

Jaylen Brown gave everything he had to the Celtics.

He helped deliver a championship, earned Finals MVP, and built a legacy that will be remembered in Boston for years to come.

Now, he'll continue his career in Philadelphia.

No matter how it ended, what he accomplished in Boston should never be forgotten. 💚

Shams Charania on why the Celtics traded Jaylen Brown:

"For the Celtics where this had come down to is they tried to trade for Giannis.. They missed out. Ever since then what's been interesting, they didn't stop the conversations there. By today they were actively shopping full blown shopping Jaylen Brown around the league... Jaylen Brown never asked out of Boston. This was all the Celtics."

A franchise-altering decision made entirely by the Celtics' front office.

According to Shams Charania, here's the full draft package the Celtics received from the 76ers in the Jaylen Brown trade:

• 2028 first-round pick (or a first-round pick swap if it becomes more favorable for Boston)
• 2031 unprotected first-round pick
• Most favorable 2028 second-round pick between the Warriors, Thunder, and Bucks
• Most favorable 2030 second-round pick between the Wizards, Trail Blazers, and Suns

A decade in Boston.

Five All-Star appearances.
Two All-NBA Second Team selections.
2024 Eastern Conference Finals MVP.
2024 NBA Finals MVP.
NBA Champion.

Jaylen Brown leaves behind one of the greatest careers in Celtics history.

No. 7 belongs in the rafters.

Thank you for everything, JB. 💚

BREAKING: The Boston Celtics are trading Jaylen Brown to the Philadelphia 76ers in exchange for Paul George, two first-round picks, and two second-round picks, according to ESPN sources. 🤯

Mitchell Robinson brings exactly what Boston needed.

🏀 1.2 blocks per game
💪 8.8 rebounds in just 19 minutes per game
📈 191 contested offensive rebounds, the 3rd most in the NBA

He's going to make a major impact protecting the rim and dominating the glass.

Joe Mazzulla's comments on Mitchell Robinson back in 2025 feel especially relevant now:

"He's good on both ends of the floor. He's able to play by himself. He's able to play double-big...Then on the defensive end, his ability to protect the rim, his ability to get extra possessions. His screening...He's a huge factor to what they do."

Now he'll get the chance to coach him firsthand in Boston.
