New York State of Mind: 3 Celtics standouts in 3-point barrage vs Knicks
Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown had a nice bounce back game
It was hard to decide between Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown here, but we’re going with JB since he was able to bounce back from a low scoring night against the Chicago Bulls to put up 30 against the Knicks on Saturday night.
As the duo once again showed why they are tough to beat when they are both on their game, Brown continued to show his versatility by catching fire from three just like the rest of his team.
In tying Tatum with a game-high 6 3-pointers, Brown also pulled down 5 rebounds to go along with 3 assists. With his 30-point performance he once again showed just how much he enjoys playing at Madison Square Garden. He also loves when his team is knocking down shots.
"“We got a really good team who can really shoot the ball,” Brown said following the game. “When we give each other the correct spacing and we get going like we did tonight, a lot of shots can fall.”"

They certainly did fall and it was because of the spacing like Brown referred to. Along with his partner in crime Jayson Tatum creating and making shots from beyond the arc, a sharpshooter like Sam Hauser off the bench also helps. The most impressive part of the night and the historic performance is they were without a stretch big like Al Horford who can also knock it down.
In all, it was good to see Jaylen Brown get back on tract with his shooting as he lead the way in the Boston Celtics moving their record to 6-3.
