Jaylen Brown Drops Unexpected Hint on Hawks Move—What He Revealed Will Surprise Fans
So here’s a curious twist in the tale of Jaylen Brown, the Boston Celtics’ loyal star who, despite carving out a dazzling nine-year legacy in the green, hasn’t quite closed the book on a future homecoming to Georgia. Yes, the same Georgia that gave us peaches, sweet tea—and Brown himself, hailing from Marietta. Now, picture this: What if the Celtics’ stalwart suddenly swapped parquet floors for the Hawks’ hardwood? Is it wishful thinking, family whispers, or just plain basketball destiny playing its hand? Brown’s recent candid admission on The Big Tigger radio show—that his grandma’s rooting for a reunion with the Atlanta Hawks—adds a dash of real-world spice to what’s usually just a fan fantasy. While his contract and current role in Boston make this feel like a long shot, the NBA’s capricious winds can shift faster than a fast break. Buckle up—because if Celtics fortunes waver, some very interesting phone calls might be on the horizon.
Jaylen Brown is beloved by all Boston Celtics fans, but he holds a special place in his heart for the state of Georgia.
Brown is from Marietta, Georgia, which means there have always been questions about him potentially playing for the Atlanta Hawks someday.
Brown isn’t going to rule that idea out, and recently talked about it on The Big Tigger radio show.
“You never know. I think my grandma would, too,” Brown said when told that people would love to see him playing in Atlanta.

Brown has only played for the Celtics during his nine years in the league.
During that time, he has become an All-Star four times, an NBA champion, and has won Eastern Conference Finals MVP and Finals MVP.
Through it all, eager Atlanta fans have dreamed of the possibility of him coming back home.
There have been small rumors about Brown possibly leaving the Celtics during his career, but he is currently with them on a huge and healthy contract.
The idea of him leaving the Celtics for the Hawks or any team seems unlikely, at least right now.
In fact, he might be the leader of the team in the new season because they will be without Jayson Tatum.
But the Celtics have already made some roster adjustments this summer in preparation for the absence of Tatum.
If the new year doesn’t go well, they might make other changes.
And if things really fall apart in Boston, there will be rumors of them parting with a few players, including Brown.
If that time comes, you can bet the Hawks will be very interested and will pick up the phone about a possible Brown acquisition.
Right now, it feels far-fetched, but a lot can change during a single NBA season.
