Brown was the third pick in the 2016 NBA Draft out of Cal and is in his eighth season in the league (all with Boston).

Despite only being 27, he is headed to his sixth Eastern Conference Finals appearance.

However, the Celtics have been unable to win a title since the 2008 season when Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce were still on the roster.
