    Jaylen Brown DELIVERS for Boston Celtics at All-Star—Beverly Hills PD Halts His Event

    Jaylen Brown’s All-Star weekend showcased both on-court firepower and off-court drama. He had a great early run in the tournament, but tailed off in the final two games. The bigger story might be a run-in with the Beverly Hills PD, derailing his 741 event—costing him $300,000 and raising questions about celebrity athlete treatment.  Jayson Tatum drops a teaser for his anticipated five-part docuseries chronicling his recovery and planned return, while Derrick White owns his “All-Star impact,” sparking debates about recognition versus real influence in the Boston Celtics’ lineup. John Karalis of Celtics On SI breaks down Brown’s All-Star performance, and also has a candid take on the NBA’s tanking controversy, questioning if outrage is genuine or just fleeting fandom. Key highlights include Victor Wembanyama’s rising stardom, formats that reinvigorate All-Star games, and why strategic tanking remains a polarizing, yet often celebrated, path to team greatness.
