WATCH: Jaylen Brown scores 22 points, 5 rebounds in 2021 NBA All-Star Game

The first-time All-Star had a solid debut in his hometown of Atlanta.

Boston Celtics All-Star forward Jaylen Brown had himself a very solid debut at the 2021 NBA All-Star game held this Sunday, March 7 in Atlanta, Georgia. The Marietta native — just a short drive away — impressed in front of a hometown crowd as he co-represented the Celtics.

Teammate Jayson Tatum did well for Team Durant, but Brown had been drafted for Team LeBron, and helped his squad secure the 170 – 150 win with 22 points, 5 rebounds, an assist and 2 steals. The Cal-Berkeley product was a very efficient 8-of-12 overall and 5-of-7 from beyond the arc — in total an excellent first stab at the annual league exhibition.

Watch this highlights clip embedded below put together by Tomasz Kordylewski to see the Celtic forward’s performance for yourself.
