Boston Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla was asked to provide an update on 2024 NBA Finals MVP winner Jaylen Brown.

Effective communication is important between a coach and his star player, but apparently this is not always self-evident for Mazzulla and Brown. Boston’s head coach couldn’t provide much information about the wing because, according to Mazzulla, they were both mumbling.

Brown has missed his last three games for the Celtics due to a hip injury, but Mazzulla didn’t actually add any additional insights for reporters during his press conference.

The coach said that although he talks to Brown daily, the conversations don’t always go well.

When asked if Brown was mumbling about his hip at all, Mazzulla said he “couldn’t hear him.”

Never change, Mazzulla. Never change.
