76ers news: Jaylen Brown’s answer about circled games will grab Celtics fans' attention

Jaylen Brown, the standout player for the Boston Celtics in 2025-26, is brimming with a desire to get back at his former team, the Philadelphia 76ers, after being traded during the off-season. Following an impressive season where he averaged 29 points, 7 assists, and 5 rebounds, Brown found himself on the wrong side of the trade that saw him leave the Celtics for the rival Sixers.

Brown's frustration is evident, as he told Chris Haynes during media day, “All of them [games] circled, there are some that are double circled too.” This revelation has caught the attention of Celtics fans, who are eager to see if Brown will take particular care in facing his former squad, the Celtics, in their upcoming matchup on November 10.

However, he must be cautious not to overplay his hand, as excessive effort could harm the Sixers' performance. Regardless, any game between the 76ers and Celtics this season is bound to be a thrilling watch, primarily for the reaction of Jaylen Brown.
