Jaylen Brown hops forward to make the basket

Over the weekend, the Boston Celtics played against the Denver Nuggets in a two-game preseason series in Abu Dhabi, winning both games. On Sunday, they achieved a solid 130-104 victory.

Jaylen Brown shared his thoughts on playing in the Middle East, saying, “I think it was amazing. It’s globalizing the sport and the game.

Obviously, the Middle East is working on a bunch of projects to bring sport and entertainment to this area. The fact that we’re able to be here, have fun, and bring the game together in different places of the world, that’s the beauty of sports…”

He feels the trip was helpful for both him and his teammates. “I think it’s good for us to expand our horizons, think about our brands outside of basketball, build some relationships, and build that camaraderie together.”

Like other superstars before him, Brown is excited to be a global ambassador for basketball. “I appreciate all the people that I’ve been able to make relationships with in the Middle East, here in Abu Dhabi… As I continue to grow, being an ambassador of the sport is something I look forward to being.”

Brown also expressed his excitement about meeting soccer legends Thierry Henry, Ronaldinho, and Gerard Piqué: “These are the people that I grew up being inspired by. So, to have them all together wearing Celtics jerseys and all taking a picture with me, the little kid inside of me was as happy as I can be.”
