Jaylen Brown has placed his Boston penthouse on the market with an asking price of $4.75million.
Located in the upscale Seaport neighborhood, the listing is described as a ‘1-of-1 open concept 3-bedroom home’ featuring 12-foot high wood-beam ceilings, exposed brick walls, and factory style windows.
The penthouse, located at the intersection of Melcher and Necco Streets, has a spacious living area and a full kitchen equipped with an eat-in island and top-of-the-line appliances.
The three bedrooms are described as ‘extremely large’ and includes a primary suite ‘with spacious walk-in closets, a double vanity, and a walk-in shower.’
Other features of the unit are a full bath, powder room, and in-unit washer and dryer as well as a private 400+ square foot roof deck.
The unit, being sold by George Sarkis and Manny Sarkis of The Sarkis Team at Douglas Elliman describes it as ‘a home for champions’.
That makes it truly fitting for the outgoing owner Brown, who is the reigning NBA Finals MVP after helping lead the Celtics to a title in five-games this season.
But mysteriously, the guard who played his college ball at Cal is nowhere to be seen on the Team USA Olympic Basketball roster.
After Kawhi Leonard withdrew from the team last week, some expected the reigning NBA Finals MVP to be included in the roster.
But when he was passed over for Boston Celtics teammate Derrick White instead, Brown told CLNS reporter Bobby Manning he feels that shoe brand Nike had some involvement in keeping him off the team.
‘I do, for sure. There be more stuff to come with that,’ Brown said. ‘As of now, I’m not going to comment on it.’
As one of the best players in the world, Brown is quite possibly the biggest snub from the roster – especially considering his recent accomplishments.
But Brown has also been in the news Tuesday after he was seen sitting courtside for an NBA Summer League game – where he was caught brutally saying Bronny James ‘isn’t a pro’.
Sitting with WNBA star Angel Reese and her Chicago Sky teammate (and Brown’s girlfriend) Kysre Gondrezick, Brown is seen leaning over to them and saying his feelings about LeBron James’ eldest son and Laker teammate.
Neither Reese or Gondrezick appear to disagree with Brown’s stance, with the Celtics star shaking his head in chagrin after saying his opinion.
Bronny James was selected No 55 overall by Los Angeles in last month’s NBA Draft, with a heavy influence from his father and their agent, Rich Paul, who reportedly called other teams telling them not to draft the former USC guard, or he would play overseas.
Bronny’s time in the NBA’s Summer League has not impressed, including a 0-for-15 mark from 3-point range since donning the yellow and purple.
After being caught on camera, Brown decided to walk back his comments on social media.
‘It’s a flex to have your son alongside you in the NBA it reflects greatness and longevity,’ Brown said. ‘Bronny has all the tools around him to be successful I look forward to watching his growth.’
