Jaylen Brown has not publicly commented on the beef between Drake and Kendrick Lamar. Brown is busy with more important things in life, but it seemed like he liked Lamar’s work at the moment. He also bopped to “Not Like Us” earlier this year with teammate Jrue Holiday during a Boston Celtics practice.
The Celtics star doesn’t have any link with either Drake or Lamar although he’s from Georgia. He also went to the University of California in Berkeley, which is just six hours away from Kendrick’s hometown of Compton.
Jaylen Brown dabbled into rap this offseason
One of the biggest red flags, when Jaylen Brown was being scouted before the draft, was his propensity for activities outside basketball. Brown was called “too smart” for the NBA, but he clearly chose the right path with one NBA championship and one NBA Finals trophy already on his resume.
Brown dabbled into a new foray this offseason after taking home the title. He released a single titled “Just Do It” with rapper FERG. The title alluded to Nike’s popular tagline, with Brown famously getting into a feud with the shoe giant for how it treated Kyrie Irving.
The Celtics star also insinuated that he was not chosen for Team USA because of his criticism of Nike. Nevertheless, things worked out for Brown despite the snub, and he can put rapper on his resume now.
Jaylen Brown having another fantastic season for Boston
The Boston Celtics entered the season as favorites to win back-to-back NBA championships. They still had issues with their depth, but their main core remained intact. Jayson Tatum was hyped to have a revenge campaign after what happened with Team USA, but Jaylen Brown remains an important part of the defending champs.
Brown is having another fantastic season for the Celtics, averaging 25.6 points, 6.7 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 1.0 steals per game. He’s one of the reasons why Boston has a record of 15-3 after the first five weeks. They are second in the Eastern Conference standings just behind the 17-1 Cleveland Cavaliers.
