Jaylen Brown criticized the Boston Celtics for what he called a lack of respect during the process that led to his trade to the Philadelphia 76ers, speaking out on a Twitch livestream one day after the deal was finalized. Boston received Paul George and four draft picks in the trade, ending Brown's 10-year run with the franchise that included a 2023-24 championship.

Brown pointed to Celtics president Brad Stevens' communication during the process as a source of frustration while adjusting to his new team.
