Jaylen Brown Won't Answer Question About Who Is 'Alpha' on 76ers After Trade, LeBron Signing
After being traded from the Boston Celtics to the Philadelphia 76ers, star guard Jaylen Brown is joining a loaded lineup that also includes stars LeBron James, Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey and VJ Edgecombe.
After being traded from the Boston Celtics to the Philadelphia 76ers, star guard Jaylen Brown is joining a loaded lineup that also includes stars LeBron James, Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey and VJ Edgecombe.
However, Brown isn't interested in discussing his new team's hierarchy. When asked during Monday's media day about who the " alpha " of the Sixers is, Brown told reporters, "Next question."
Of course, being the "alpha" of a team was a large part of the debate about the sustainability of Brown's role alongside Celtics star forward Jayson Tatum. Boston opted to break up its star tandem, despite the fact that it will now be facing Brown in division rivalry games.
While Brown isn't looking to discuss the Sixers' pecking order, it's fair to wonder about how the offense will flow with so many All-Star-caliber players.
For now, it sounds like Brown is willing to contribute however he's needed as the Sixers chase an NBA championship this year.
