Boston Celtics stars Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown showcased their chemistry at the 2025 NBA All-Star Game in San Francisco. Together they helped Shaq’s OGs secure a 42-35 victory in the championship matchup. The team, led by NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal, outlasted Candace Parker’s Rising Stars and Charles Barkley’s Global Stars on Sunday night.

One of the most talked-about moments of the night occurred before the game even tipped off. During the pre-game show, cameras caught Brown saying something, and lip readers later revealed that he had muttered, “Get ‘em out of here.” While the exact target of his comment remains unclear, it quickly became a viral moment.

On the court, Brown delivered solid performances. He scored eight points on 4-5 shooting despite not recording a rebound or assist. Meanwhile, Tatum finished with six points, two rebounds, and two assists, shooting an efficient 3-4 from the field.

While the Celtics duo played a key role, it was Damian Lillard (nine points) and Stephen Curry (eight points, six rebounds) who provided the biggest impact. Lillard knocked down three triples, while Curry contributed with his usual deep-range shooting and rebounding efforts.

Jaylen Brown Reacts To Unexpected 17-Minute Break During All-Star Finals

The 2025 NBA All-Star Game finals had an unusual moment when both teams were forced to wait 17 minutes before resuming play. The lengthy delay left players confused, as some were unsure of why it happened. After the game, Jaylen Brown addressed the unexpected break and admitted that he was caught off guard.

“I didn’t. I don’t know if the rest of the other guys knew. I didn’t know. So that kind of took the gas out of everything for a little bit. We’re trying to be great professionals, and we’re trying to do different things and explore, generating viewership. Tonight was us trying to do something different,” Brown said.
