Celtics star Jaylen Brown took issue Friday night with a foul former teammate Grant Williams had on Jayson Tatum in the closing minutes of the Celtics’ 124-109 win.
Jaylen Brown had 25 points in the Boston Celtics’ 124-109 victory over the Charlotte Hornets on Friday night, but he saved his biggest shots for after the game.
The star guard took issue with former teammate Grant Williams, who plowed into Jayson Tatum from the side as Tatum was dribbling near half court late in the fourth quarter. Tatum spilled to the ground. Brown then came in and jawed at Williams and the Hornets bench.
Tatum appeared upset as he got to his feet, but simply walked toward the foul line as officials reviewed the play. Williams was ejected for a flagrant foul 2 and could face a league suspension.
Asked if he thought Williams’ foul was unintentional, Brown didn’t hesitate with an answer.
“Like, what are we talking about? Y’all see the same play that I was seeing?” Brown told reporters in Charlotte.
