NBA fans are reacting to a video of Jaylen Brown going viral, where the Celtics star can be heard saying that Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is a ‘flopper’ and a foul baiter. While SGA is yet to respond to this, it seems like fans are making use of the opportunity to come up with hilarious reactions to Brown’s remarks.
Several fans feel that Brown is good at nothing but gossiping about other players in the league, sharing a picture of the Celtics player talking closely with A’ja Wilson and Angel Reese at a basketball game.
“Jaylen Brown says SGA is a flopper and a foul baiter (crying emoji)” Brick Center tweeted.

“Fr Shai can play but gotta stop the dramatics fr its just the truth and you know this too yes you reading this tweet right now yeah you (hand pointing emoji x3)” another fan said.
“He’s giving SGA props for something at the beginning of the video. Maybe even best in the league right now. Said ‘Shai nice’ like 6 times. Just to be clear, he said both things,” one more fan stated about Brown’s comments on SGA.
At the same time, there were numerous fans who felt that Jaylen Brown was totally off on his comments on SGA and that the Celtics hooper was simply jealous of the Canadian. Of course, there were many bald jokes in the running, especially since Brown has shaved his head completely while SGA still rocks his braids.
