Overview
- Brown was officially named to the 2025–26 All‑NBA Second Team on Sunday night and reacted on his FCHWPO Twitch livestream by saying, “I’m grateful. God is the greatest.”
- Multiple reports say Brown was the highest vote‑getter on the Second Team and was reported to have missed a First Team slot by about 30 voting points.
- He produced career highs across 71 starts, averaging 28.7 points, 6.9 rebounds and 5.1 assists, and led the NBA with 736 made field goals this season.
- With Jayson Tatum sidelined for the first 62 games after a ruptured right Achilles, Brown carried Boston to a 56‑26 regular season finish but the Celtics were eliminated 3‑1 by Philadelphia in the first round on May 2.
- Teammates publicly voiced surprise at the Second Team placement and analysts have noted that the NBA’s one‑year change to the 65‑game eligibility threshold could influence Brown’s market and the Celtics’ roster and contract decisions this offseason.
