“I’m just focused on coming out and doing what’s best for my team,” he told reporters after the loss. “Everything else is just… to be honest, I wasn’t paying attention but credit to Jayson, he played well tonight.”
These two teams will meet again this year, so we’ll see if this coldness continues.
Whew. There is definitely something going on here, right?
Why do Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum have apparent beef?
There’s no full explanation for that. Seems like the Brown and Celtics divorce was acrimonious, but we’re waiting to see why. Tatum said weeks ago that there was no beef between the two ex-teammates, while Brown, said there was “nothing” for them to talk about.
