This off-season Jaylen Brown<\/a> received a record-breaking<\/a> five-year 304 million dollar contract. Many people were critical of this contract after a bad conference finals series from Brown. However, Brown has had another stellar year and is in the midst of an incredible stretch. As a result, he is proving many of his doubters wrong and is living up to his massive contract. Let\u2019s dive into Brown\u2019s season and improvements.<\/p>\n Brown is averaging 29.6 ppg, 5.9 rpg, and 3.9 apg in March<\/a>. With these numbers, Brown leads the team in scoring this month. This includes a season-high 41-point outburst against the Nuggets and a 37-point performance against the Suns to clinch<\/a> a playoff spot. Brown\u2019s 29-point contribution in just 22 minutes in a blowout win against the Warriors is also notable<\/a>. While Tatum had a slower start in March Brown picked up the load in a massive way.<\/p>\n Brown is the tone-setter for Boston his 7.3 1st quarter ppg<\/a> lead the team. Brown\u2019s elite shot creation and three-level scoring abilities are central to his success. When Brown\u2019s in the zone he\u2019s one of the hardest players to guard in the league. Brown has the complete package of finishing, shot-making, and shot-creation abilities. Having a second option capable of going for 30 plus any night is a true luxury for the Celtics. Brown\u2019s improved all-around impact makes his recent scoring stretch even more impressive.<\/p>\n Ultimately Brown is the gold standard of second stars. While he is talented enough to be a number one option<\/a> on a playoff team, Brown sacrifices this for the greater goal of winning a title with Boston. When Tatum struggles, Brown’s production noticeably goes up. This serves as a safeguard for when Tatum has a bad night or is injured. However for the most part this duo is incredibly consistent and their elite abilities complement each other nicely. Having two elite scoring wings makes the Celtics one of the hardest matchups in the league.<\/p>\n So far this season \u2014<\/p>\n Brown without Tatum: Tatum without Brown: \u2014 StatMuse (@statmuse) March 13, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\nHow Jaylen Brown Is Living Up To His Massive Contract<\/h2>\n
