Jaylen Brown will be looked upon as a key contributor for the Boston Celtics during the 2019-20 season.
The wing has shown plenty of flashes in his first three seasons with Boston, but his fourth year should provide him with the best opportunity to shine. With the Celtics’ Summer League slate concluding Saturday, the Tacko Fall craze will take a brief hiatus before returning for training camp later this summer. But it appears Brown is a fan of the 7-foot-6 center, as well.
Brown liked two Instagram posts Sunday that were voicing support for the Celtics adding Fall to their regular-season roster. Both posts referenced tweets from Kendrick Perkins, who has been extremely vocal with his opinions on Fall throughout summer league.
Check it out:
Fall quickly became a celebrity in Las Vegas, receiving standing ovations each time he would check into games at Thomas & Mack Center or Cox Pavilion. The UCF product averaged 7.2 points and four rebounds in five games on 77 percent shooting from the floor. Fall averaged 12.6 minutes per game.
Time will tell if the Celtics do take a flier on the big man, but Boston certainly has some extra flexibility now that Guerschon Yabusele has been waived.
