BOSTON—Jaylen Brown was a big enough problem for the Indiana Pacers even before an All-NBA snub that may have given him an added desire to show how much he can do for the Boston Celtics.
“I think he cares about it in a way that motivates him, and I think he doesn’t really care about it at all,” Celtics Coach Joe Mazzulla said after watching Brown match his playoff career high of 40 points in Boston’s 126–110 victory over Indiana in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference finals Thursday night.
