Less than a year after inking the richest contract in NBA history, Brown led the Celtics to the 2024 NBA title, earning Finals MVP honors along the way. This adds another major accolade to his resume, as he was also named MVP of Boston’s Eastern Conference Finals victory.

Throughout the NBA Playoffs, Brown consistently rose to the occasion when his team needed him most. Whether it was his clutch three-pointer to force overtime in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals or his calm, decisive play in Game 3 of the NBA Finals, Brown’s value shone brightly during the biggest moments.

Though his record-breaking deal has yet to kick in, the 2023-24 season has already validated Boston’s historic investment in the 27-year-old. Here’s a closer look at the deal Brown has already justified.
