Jaylen Brown, Celtics To Continue Supermax Talks At Summer League

Since July 1st, Jaylen Brown has been eligible for a supermax contract. The good news for him is that the Boston Celtics aren’t shopping him and are looking to get a deal done.

Per Adam Himmelsbach of the Boston Globe, Boston does not plan on low-balling him as they want to pay him as closely to the supermax as humanly possible. It is expected both sides continue to talk to land Brown the five-year, $295 million supermax extension.

While there can be some negotiations on the incentives, there is a common belief both sides will agree to this supermax.

Damian Lillard’s name has been shopped around the league with fans speculating if Boston would want to acquire him. That has led to fans speculating whether or not Brown would be shipped away to receive Lillard.

However, it appears Lillard is not on Boston’s radar at the moment and they’ll continue to get a deal done with Brown.
