Jaylen Brown is in the middle of the prime of his career, but the five-time NBA All-Star is already planning ahead for his post-basketball career in a differrent sport.Apparently, to the octagon, Brown told reporters at NBA All-Star weekend in Los Angeles.
IMAGN IMAGES via Reuters Connect. “Maybe the post part of my career, I would love to partake in something like UFC or even boxing. I’ve talked to Dana White about some stuff. But we’ll see as things go on. We’ll see.” Considering that Brown is 29 years old and still has plenty of basketball left in him, those UFC dreams are likely a ways off. The Celtics are currently the second-best team in the Eastern Conference at the All-Star break and Brown has been on a tear this season. With 23.9 points per game this season, Brown sits tied for third best in the league among offensive leaders, while also averaging 6.9 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game this season. The NBA has not been immune to some scuffles or physical play on the court, which has given Brown the chance to put a little of his combat training into use. “It’s kind of exciting when you get in the moment to have a little bit of controversy,” Brown said. “Sometimes it’s not even that big of a deal, but we’ve got emotional dudes, we’ve got passionate dudes about this game. Some of that stuff is going to happen. You get in between the margins, you’re throwing ‘bows. That stuff, that’s a part of the game to some degree.” Brown was throwing a different kind of jab over the weekend — a verbal one — at the city of Beverly Hills after cops there Brown took to social media to blast the department, calling Beverly Hills “trash” and saying, “people worked hard for this how dare y’all.”
