Boston Celtics Stars

Take your best shot at picking an accolade or experience that Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown haven’t conquered together, and odds are, the list stops at one. Unsatisfied even after constructing a résumé that includes 10 postseason series wins over a six-season span, eight combined All-Star trips, and a 2022 NBA Finals run, the duo affectionately known as “The Jays” spent the 2023-24 season fixated on a level beyond their A-game. Even while sacrificing individual greatness to incorporate their formidable supporting cast, Tatum remained a respected footnote on the competitive Most Valuable Player race, tying his second-highest points per game average (26.9), a career-best eFG% (55.2), and an undisputed claim as the alpha dog on the top regular-season team. Closely tethered, Brown furthered his two-way reputation, matching career-highs in steals (83) and blocks (37) with elite scoring (23.0) for another remarkable season. Confident, healthy, and motivated, the electric tandem appear positioned to place a Boston Celtics green-colored checkmark on their goal of capturing an elusive NBA title. This Fandom 'Stars' Redemption can be crafted into either a Jayson Tatum or Jaylen Brown Moment after each round of the 2024 NBA Playoffs.
