There were those who questioned Jaylen Brown calling out USAB after getting snubbed – especially with teammate Derrick White being named as the replacement. Turns out, there wasn’t anything to worry about as Brown called White “right away.” More here: masslive.com/celtics/2024/0… – 12:04 AM

I asked Jaylen Brown if he believes Nike played a role in him being left off Team USA. He said he does, but doesn’t want to comment beyond that. Brown also talked to White to congratulate him on being named to Team USA and said they’re good. pic.twitter.com/EHwlljt4Vx – 11:42 PM

Jaylen Brown just told us he called Derrick White “right away” to congratulate him on being named to the Olympic team. Also said he wasn’t surprised about being left off but is very motivated. #Celtics #Lakers – 11:40 PM

ClutchPoints: Jaylen Brown, Kysre Gondrezick, and Angel Reese depart from Celtics-Lakers early. (via @TomerAzarly) pic.twitter.com/PHknka84sB -via Twitter @ClutchPointsApp / July 16, 2024
Jayson Tatum: “When you have success early, they just think you’re so much older than you are. There was so much talk of like, ‘our window has closed.’ It was like, I just turned 26, and Jaylen Brown is 27. They say you don’t hit your prime until you’re 28, but we were just held to a different standard because, in my rookie year, we played LeBron in a Game Seven to go to the finals.” -via YouTube / July 16, 2024
Jared Weiss: Jaylen Brown on not making Team USA: “I wasn’t surprised, but my reaction was that I was happy for D White. It’s dope to have so much of our guys on there, so I was happy for those guys. But I wasn’t surprised.” pic.twitter.com/UcL9XAhhOr -via Twitter @JaredWeissNBA / July 16, 2024
