Jaylen Brown Gives Jayson Tatum Cold Shoulder Before Celtics vs. 76ers Tips Off

Last month, Celtics star Jayson Tatum declared that there was "no beef" between him and Jaylen Brown, who was sent from Boston to Philadelphia during the offseason. Brown agreed, but he noted that there might be "a little lamb chops and some gravy."

Well, it appears that Brown ordered his lamb chops with extra spice.

Before the start of Tuesday night's game between the Celtics and 76ers, Tatum reached out to either shake Brown's hand or give him a quick hug, and Brown completely ignored him. NBC play-by-play announcer Noah Eagle said that Tatum and Brown also did not interact while warming up.

Tatum then shared a moment with LeBron James, who played alongside Tatum as a member of Team USA at the Paris Olympics.

The awkward moment didn't seem to impact Tatum, as he scored 11 points on 4-of-7 shooting from the field in the first quarter. Brown, meanwhile, finished the opening frame with four points and two steals, but he did pick up two fouls.
