Ahead of the Boston Celtics Game 3 win over the Brooklyn Nets at TD Garden on Friday and on the heels of some comments made by former teammate and current Net Kyrie Irving, injured and convalescing All-Star wing Jaylen Brown weighed in on Irving’s expressed desire to avoid racially-charged interactions with fans.
