Jaylen Brown is elevating his game as the Celtics’ offense runs through him for the first time

SALT LAKE CITY — Jaylen Brown expects this of himself, so there is no surprise. There is no glee. After Sunday’s Celtics loss to the Trail Blazers, Brown had no desire to reflect on his 37-point outing, which tied a team record.

Brown and the great Larry Bird are the lone Celtics to ever score 30 or more points in nine consecutive games. Brown will go for No. 10 on Tuesday at Delta Center against the Jazz, and enter as the Eastern Conference Player of the Week after the league acknowledged his dominant run.

His anger following the loss was warranted. For the first time in a few weeks, the Celtics lost a winnable game. They wilted down the stretch. They didn’t make defensive adjustments. They were bullied by Portland’s Donovan Clingan.

Jaylen Brown, chasing down Larry Bird and Jayson Tatum, on pace for Celtics scoring history

Late Sunday night in Portland, Jaylen Brown used a screen from Neemias Queta and dribbled into a pull-up 3-pointer from the top of the key. Before he could land, he was clobbered by Donovan Clingan and earned a trip to the free throw line. 

Once Brown picked himself up off the ground, he stepped to the line and made the first free throw to reach 30 points for the ninth consecutive game, tying Larry Bird's record for the most consecutive 30-point games in Boston Celtics history. 

The Celtics went on to lose to the Trail Blazers but not for a lack of trying from Brown, who finished with 37 points, seven rebounds and four assists on 14 of 23 from the field for his 19th 30-point game of the season. Only reigning MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (23) has more.
