Warriors Star Reacts to Jaylen Brown's Viral Contract Comments /

Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown recently signed the biggest contract in NBA history, and said the following when asked about the impact he plans to make with the money:

"I want to launch a project to bring Black Wall Street here to Boston. I want to attack the wealth disparity here. I think there's analytics that support that stimulating the wealth gap could actually be something that could be betterment for the entire economy. With the biggest financial deal in NBA history, it makes sense to talk about one, your investment in community, but two, also the wealth disparity here that nobody wants to talk about. It's top five in the U.S., it's something that we can all improve on it's unsettling. And I think through my platform, through influential partners, through selected leaders, government officials, a lot who are in this room, that we can come together and create new jobs, new resources, new businesses, new ideas that could highlight minorities but also stimulate the economy and the wealth gap at the same time."

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green liked what he heard from Brown, and shared his support on Instagram:

Having competed against one another in the NBA Finals, Green and Brown are opponents on the court, but there is clearly a respect level that goes beyond who they are as players.
