Jaylen Brown has one year left on his contract and is eligible for a super-max contract extension after making an All-NBA team this season. If exercised, that will pay him nearly $300 million over five seasons. Brown’s a star player, and perhaps even a superstar, but that might be a little too rich for a player of his caliber, especially given the Celtics’ failure to get over the hump with this current group. Handing him that much money will only make it more difficult for the Tatum and Brown tandem to win a championship, so while it’s still likely he remains in Boston, internal conversations must be had about what might be the best course of action. If the Celtics find themselves hesitant to give him that kind of deal, a trade is a legitimate possibility, and the early betting markets have pegged the Hawks as the most likely landing spot. Per Bet Online, Atlanta is listed as a 2/1 favorite if Brown is traded. They are followed by the Bucks at 3/1, Warriors 4/1, Trail Blazers at 5/1, Bulls at 6/1, and Knicks at 7/1. — s/a — https://www.sportstalkatl.com/hawks-dubbed-favorites-to-land-jaylen-brown-if-traded/

Hawks are dumb if they trade him for Trae but they wont because Brown wants his super max money. He will test free agency next season before doing a sign and trade and leaving 40-50 mil on the table.
No. The Celtics can keep Jaylen Brown. Trae and Dejounte are a good pairing. The Hawks just need to put a better package of role players around the two of them.
Think gsw should be favorite
Trae with Taytum in Celtics vs trae with Jayden brown in hawks.. either one seems possible.
I don’t see JB leaving Cs, but ATL will welcome the trade.
If it's going to happens don't send hunter and okangu send capela ,murry,jhon Collins and any other fillers and draft picks
