The Truth Behind the Celtics Trading Jaylen Brown (w/ Jay King)

Senior Writer Chris Mannix is joined by The Athletic's Jay King to break down the Boston Celtics' first press conference following the blockbuster Jaylen Brown trade. After hearing from Brad Stevens and the Celtics' front office, they examine why Boston decided to move on from JB, what the team revealed about its championship outlook, and how Paul George fits into the franchise's future.

The two also discuss the salary cap challenges that shaped the decision, whether the Celtics believed their championship window with Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown had closed, and what comes next for one of the NBA's most talked-about teams.
