Jaylen Brown outlined an unusual championship celebration idea during the 76ers' offseason, suggesting that if the team won a title, the roster would go skydiving together. According to reporting, Brown told his new teammates—including LeBron James, Tyrese Maxey, and Joel Embiid—about the proposal.
James was not convinced. Per the reporting, he texted Brown back: "Boy, hell naw." ESPN and other outlets picked up the exchange as part of coverage of the newly formed 76ers roster.
Brown discussed his transition to Philadelphia during an introductory press conference in early August, addressing his final days with the Boston Celtics and noting that he hadn't really talked with former teammate Jayson Tatum since the trade.
