Jaylen Brown joined exclusive Celtics club with history-making development
Detroit Pistons v Boston Celtics | Brian Fluharty/GettyImagesThere was a lot to love in Sunday’s Boston Celtics win over the Cleveland Cavaliers. Payton Pritchard went nuclear, Jordan Walsh logged career highs in both points and rebounds, while Jaylen Brown notched a triple-double to help the Cs hold onto a 117-115 win in Cleveland.
Brown’s well-rounded performance overshadowed a massive career achievement. The 28-year-old scored his 12,000th NBA point against the Cavs, becoming just the 14th Celtics player to reach that mark.
Jaylen Brown recorded his 12,000th career point tonight with 5:40 left in the third quarter.
