Jaylen Brown confirmed that he has not spoken with former Boston Celtics teammate Jayson Tatum since being traded to the Philadelphia 76ers in July. Tatum previously indicated that Brown ignored a phone call shortly after the trade, and Brown affirmed on Sunday that the two have neither communicated nor planned to speak before Tuesday's matchup between their teams.
The former duo spent nine seasons together in Boston, reaching two NBA Finals and winning the 2024 championship. Both players stated they are strictly focused on Tuesday's game, where the 9-2 76ers and the 8-2 Celtics meet in their first regular-season contest since the trade.
