Close<\/a>Joined ESPN in 2010 Multiple Authors<\/p>\n SAN ANTONIO — Boston Celtics<\/a> guard Jaylen Brown<\/a> was ejected in the second quarter of Tuesday’s matchup against the San Antonio Spurs<\/a> after officials whistled him for back-to-back technical fouls.<\/p>\n On the Boston offensive possession before the technical fouls, Brown appeared to stumble out of bounds while being guarded by Spurs point guard Stephon Castle<\/a>, resulting in a turnover. Brown argued vociferously with official Tyler Ford on the way down to the other end of the court that Castle pushed him out of bounds.<\/p>\n Editor’s Picks Ford eventually whistled Brown for a technical foul. But the Celtics guard continued to argue with Ford, as official Suyash Mehta promptly whistled Brown for another technical foul as teammate Sam Hauser<\/a> stepped in to restrain Brown. The second technical foul resulted in Brown’s ejection.<\/p>\n The Celtics owned a 51-49 lead at the time of Brown’s ejection. Brown continued to argue with the officials as teammates, Celtics security, coach Joe Mazzulla and assistant Sam Cassell attempted to escort the guard off the floor.<\/p>\n In 13 minutes on the floor, Brown logged eight points on 4-of-8 shooting to go with two rebounds, seven assists and one steal as the teams entered the locker room at intermission deadlocked at 58.<\/p>\n It didn’t take long for the five-time NBA All-Star to post his thoughts about the ejection on social media, saying on X that “this the s— I be talking about.” It’s unclear if Brown was talking about the game’s officiating; Brown has been critical of officials this season, and he was fined $35,000 by the NBA<\/a> in January for his postgame comments about referees.<\/p>\n Brown entered Tuesday’s contest against the Spurs averaging a team-high 28.7 points, 7.2 rebounds and 5.1 assists in 57 outings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Michael C.
