He will be the first Celtic since Larry Bird in 1984 to be on the cover of TIME.
Other basketball players to make the cover over the last 20 years:
Kobe
Zion
Caitlin Clark
Jeremy Lin
Yao Ming
Britney Griner
LeBron
There might be more I’m missing, but here is the little snippet from Colin Kaepernick as well: https://time.com/7023555/jaylen-brown/

Can already tell this is something thats gonna trigger r/nba and im absolutely here for it
Rewarding a racist
Kind of crazy that there is an Alexander Wang and an Alexandr Wang
My man Jeremy Lin
Redditors aren’t going to like this
[removed]
Dunn fucked up and Hield punching the air after his first contract have aged beautifully for this man. That said Celtics fans are trading him
For the #1 pick next year already. You can all make your own comments/decisions as to why. (Why would I do it? Luxury tax)
Man, I had almost forgotten about the Zion hype.
Way to go JB, what a fucking guy.
He finally hired a good publicist. He might get a slot for Team USA once he is popular enough.
oh god… incoming HeS sUcH a YoUnG bRiLLiAnT MiNd nonsense we get fed 3 times a game. jaylen brown is not some mastermind. he’s an idiot who thinks the abrahamic religions started with black people in africa.
he’s as dumbed a damned mormon.
These comments are absolutely wild. You’d think Brown killed someone. He just won finals MVP, will be the highest paid player in the NBA this year, and has in the last year launched a foundation dedicated to helping struggling minority business owners. Like yeah, the pseudoscience collar he wears is dumb and I get reddit has a penchant for being real fucking weird about organizations that don’t explicitly help white people too, but it’s not weird at all that he’s on the cover of time. God damn.
Was it Neismith?
That’s why he’s the face of the Celtics
I think the bigger story is that Colin Kaepernick got a cover story published in Time!
Edit: the profile was actually written by Sean Gregory here https://time.com/7025886/jaylen-brown-interview-time100-next-2024/
Ew
Surprised Steph hasn’t been on yet.
R/nbacirclejerk is going to have a field day with this
This is the most low intelligent comments / player hating laughable bullshit I have seen on Reddit in a year.
I HATE the Celtics. But holy shit y’all just go biblical type jealousy.
I wonder how many people who scream “jAyLeN hAtEs jEwS” also call for the destruction of Israel in other convos.
They just be putting anyone on Time Magazine now 💀 even frauds with one hand
Lol got em.
Wow, that’s pretty cool.
Being “too smart for the NBA” is the craziest shit I ever heard
This is just what his ego needs.
JB being on the cover really got people feeling some typa way lol
Is it Man of the Year time already?
The timing seems kind of unusual. Would have made sense after their championship. A lot of stuff going on in the news worldwide right now that you’d think would make for a more contextual cover.
Good for Jaylen!
Oh god he’s going to get even more insufferable now
Cool outfit
