Jaylen Brown has always been one of the more quiet players for the Boston Celtics, but he's showing he's not afraid to fire back.

Maybe Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown wasn’t imaging his beef with Nike after all. On Thursday, Nike Basketball’ s X account sent out a tweet that caught a lot of people’s attention.

Jaylen Brown cracked a smile when a reporter read a pair of his tweets back to him after Monday’s blowout win against the Clippers at TD Garden. On Nov. 14, Brown tweeted that Nike had “weird energy” after the footwear and apparel company tweeted that there was nothing childish about the 59 points Giannis Antetokounmpo scored against Detroit.

Brown's three-point shooting percentage was well below his career average and then he made five straight shots from downtown to start Sunday's game.
