Celtics' Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown eligible for $613 million in supermax contracts after All-NBA honors

The Boston Celtics didn't play Wednesday, but two of their players still had a very good day.

Both Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown became supermax-eligible after being named to an All-NBA team, with Tatum making the first team and Brown making the second team.

Under current NBA rules, players become eligible for the supermax if they have completed at least seven years of service and are named to an All-NBA team either the previous season or both years before it.

Brown is playing his seventh season, while Tatum is on his sixth, though he is guaranteed to be eligible next summer because he made All-NBA this season and last.
