Two-time All-Star wing Jaylen Brown has agreed to a five-year, $304 million supermax contract extension with the Boston Celtics, making him the highest-paid player in NBA history, his agent, Jason Glushon of Glushon Sports Management, confirmed to Yahoo Sports. ESPN's Marc J. Spears first reported the deal.
BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS - MAY 25: Jaylen Brown #7 of the Boston Celtics reacts against the Miami Heat during the second quarter in game five of the Eastern Conference Finals at TD Garden on May 25, 2023 in Boston, Massachusetts.

Brown was reluctant to discuss his future in Boston this past season, understandably upset after a season-ending loss to the Miami Heat andearlier this year,"I don't really know or want to answer that question because that type of stuff makes Celtics fans speculate and go crazy." Brown struggled at times in the playoffs, particularly as a playmaker and especially in this year's conference finals, where he shot 16.3% on six 3-point attempts per game and totaled more turnovers than assists . Some of his production decline can be attributed to a laceration on his shooting hand that repeatedly reopened throughout the playoffs, but he also struggled to contain his ball-handling in the 2022 Finals loss.
