NBA Jazz are chasing Jaylen Brown, Celtics

According to the exposure of US media on June 26, the NBA Jazz is actively chasing Celtics champion forward Jaylen Brown in the offseason. Although the latter is considered untradable assets by the Celtics, if they encounter very tempting weights, a transaction may be generated. The Jazz quotes Jaylen Brown as the No. 5 draft pick in 2025 + John Collins + Clarkson and other players with expired contracts. The key is that the Celtics will continue to save a lot of salary space and luxury taxes for the 2026 season, allowing them to build a team around Tatum as an important core.

It is reported that the NBA Jazz have long decided to knock down and rebuild, but they did not draw the top three in this year's draft, and only won the No. 5 pick in 2025. They hope to recruit a star who has become famous and has combat effectiveness. Celtics forward Jaylen Brown is obviously very consistent. He led the Celtics to win the championship trophy in the 2023-2024 season and was selected into the All-Star lineup many times. He is also the candidate for the Finals FMVP.

28-year-old Jaylen Brown plays as a forward and plays for the Celtics in the 2024-2025 season. He has played in a total of 11 games in the playoffs this season, averaging 36.6 minutes per game, scoring 22.1 points + 7.1 rebounds + 3.9 assists + 1.0 steals + 0.3 blocks, shooting percentage of 44.0%, three-point shooting percentage of 33.0%, and free throw shooting percentage of 75.0%. With Tatum missing due to injury, his performance on both offense and defense was not very aggressive and dominant on the offense and defense of the playoffs.
