In a lighthearted twist on an athletic challenge, Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown turned to NBA legend LeBron James for advice on a personal matter—his hairline. A viral moment during a game against the New York Knicks saw Brown’s hairline smudging off on the jersey of OG Anunoby. This prompted Brown to reach out to James, humorously attributing his hair troubles to a decade of stress playing in Boston.
Seeking Advice on Hairline Treatment
After the viral incident, Brown jokingly considered traveling to Türkiye for hair treatment. He left a message for James, who has frequently faced scrutiny regarding his own hairline over the years. During a live stream, Brown hinted at addressing the hair issue further and included a call to James.
Impressive Performance Amid Hairline Concerns
Despite the hairline jokes, Brown has not let distractions affect his performance on the court. Currently, he is the leading scorer for the Celtics, especially with fellow player Jayson Tatum sidelined due to injury. Through the first three games of the 2023 season, Brown has averaged:
- 29.7 points per game
- 5.3 rebounds per game
- 3.7 assists per game
His shooting statistics are also noteworthy, with an impressive 49.2 percent from the field and 50 percent from beyond the arc. Brown’s scoring abilities will be crucial for the Celtics, especially as they aim for a competitive position in the Eastern Conference.
Impact on Celtics’ Season
Brown’s role as the key offensive player highlights his importance to the team’s success. As the Celtics navigate through injuries and seek a deep playoff run, they will rely heavily on Brown’s contributions. If the humor surrounding his hair continues, it may allow him more space to operate on the court.
