Celtics in no rush to give Jaylen Brown extension?
· Yahoo Sports
Brad Stevens is no stranger to extensions but giving out that type of money to a 33-year-old is far from a no brainer. Adding that type of long-term commitment is more likely to hurt than help Brown’s trade value in the present even after his standout regular season in 2025-26. Quite simply, there’s no sense of urgency here from a Celtics standpoint to do an extension now beyond just appeasing Brown. That’s not going to be the impetus for Stevens’ next big deal. He’s got bigger decisions to make for the present and making a decision on Brown’s long-term future doesn’t help him on that front. For that reason, don’t expect an extension to be among Stevens’ priorities this summer.
