Jaylen Brown has registered at least 30 points every time he has taken the floor in December. Friday night against the Indiana Pacers, that streak appeared to be in jeopardy.
The four-time All-Star was sitting on 24 points with 6:30 remaining in the final frame. With the Boston Celtics leading by 25, Brown's curtain call was coming. His replacement was already at the scorer's table.
Perhaps Joe Mazzulla would have given him the time necessary. However, the former Finals MVP worked efficiently to get the job done before the next stoppage in play. Brown casually buried back-to-back threes 32 seconds apart.
