There was plenty of attention on Jaylen Brown heading into Tuesday’s matchup against his former team, the Boston Celtics.

NBA fans widely mocked Jaylen Brown on social media following a disappointing 13-point outing in Philadelphia's 123-101 loss to the Boston Celtics. Despite significant pregame buildup around his matchup against former teammate Jayson Tatum, Brown struggled, committing four turnovers and finishing with a game-worst box plus-minus of -27. Fans instead highlighted Paul George's 36-point display, dubbing the matchup an unexpected revenge game against Philadelphia.
Early foul trouble heavily limited Brown, forcing head coach Nick Nurse to restrict him to a season-low 26 minutes. Brown picked up two quick fouls in the first quarter and another early in the second half, which Nurse identified as the reason Brown never established a rhythm. The defeat caused Philadelphia to drop to a 9-3 record, surrendering first place in the Eastern Conference to Boston.
