Over that time, he has amassed a lot of big statistics for the Celtics which will keep him in the conversation of all-time greats for a long time. <\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a look at where his statistical accomplishments rank all-time. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-1\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"72\">Brown&#8217;s 28.7 points per game last season tied him for the fifth-highest single-season scoring average in team history. <\/p>\n<p>Player<\/p>\n<p>Season<\/p>\n<p>Scoring average<\/p>\n<p>Jayson Tatum<\/p>\n<p>2022-23<\/p>\n<p>30.1<\/p>\n<p>Larry Bird<\/p>\n<p>1987-88<\/p>\n<p>29.9<\/p>\n<p>Isaiah Thomas<\/p>\n<p>2016-17<\/p>\n<p>28.9<\/p>\n<p>John Havlicek<\/p>\n<p>1970-71<\/p>\n<p>28.9<\/p>\n<p>Jaylen Brown<\/p>\n<p>2025-26<\/p>\n<p>28.7<\/p>\n<p>Larry Bird<\/p>\n<p>1984-85<\/p>\n<p>28.7<\/p>\n<p>Larry Bird<\/p>\n<p>1986-87<\/p>\n<p>28.1<\/p>\n<p>John Havlicek<\/p>\n<p>1971-72<\/p>\n<p>27.5<\/p>\n<p>Jayson Tatum<\/p>\n<p>2021-22<\/p>\n<p>26.9<\/p>\n<p>Jayson Tatum<\/p>\n<p>2023-24<\/p>\n<p>26.9<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-3\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"77\">To go along with that, Brown&#8217;s final season saw him make the sixth-most field goals per game in a single season (10.4), and take the seventh-most field goal attempts per game (21.7). However, if you equalize the minutes, Brown averaged 10.8 field goals per 36 minutes, the most in a single season in team history. He remained seventh in field goal attempts per 36 minutes at 22.7. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-4\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7a\">Moving on to the all-time rankings, Brown&#8217;s totals over 10 years put him in impressive company. He finished his Celtics career as Boston&#8217;s 10th all-time leading scorer. <\/p>\n<p>Player<\/p>\n<p>Points<\/p>\n<p>John Havlicek<\/p>\n<p>26,395<\/p>\n<p>Paul Pierce<\/p>\n<p>24,021<\/p>\n<p>Larry Bird<\/p>\n<p>21,791<\/p>\n<p>Robert Parish<\/p>\n<p>18,245<\/p>\n<p>Kevin McHale<\/p>\n<p>17,355<\/p>\n<p>Bob Cousy<\/p>\n<p>16,955<\/p>\n<p>Sam Jones<\/p>\n<p>15,411<\/p>\n<p>Bill Russell<\/p>\n<p>14,522<\/p>\n<p>Jayson Tatum<\/p>\n<p>14,132<\/p>\n<p>Jaylen Brown<\/p>\n<p>13,474<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7f\">Brown averaged 20 points per game over his career, which is good for eighth overall. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7i\">A lot of those points came via the three-pointer. The top three in team history in three-point field goal makes and attempts are the same. <\/p>\n<p>Player<\/p>\n<p>3-point attempts<\/p>\n<p>3-point FG<\/p>\n<p>Paul Pierce<\/p>\n<p>4928<\/p>\n<p>1823<\/p>\n<p>Jayson Tatum<\/p>\n<p>4324<\/p>\n<p>1593<\/p>\n<p>Jaylen Brown<\/p>\n<p>3589<\/p>\n<p>1284<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-9\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7n\">Pierce, Tatum, and Brown are the only three Celtics with more than 1,000 made threes and more than 3,000 attempts.  Derrick White and Payton Pritchard should get to 1,000 makes this season.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-10\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7q\">Brown is seventh in total playoff points<\/p>\n<p>Player<\/p>\n<p>Playoff Points<\/p>\n<p>Larry Bird<\/p>\n<p>3,897<\/p>\n<p>John Havlicek<\/p>\n<p>3,776<\/p>\n<p>Kevin McHale<\/p>\n<p>3,182<\/p>\n<p>Jayson Tatum<\/p>\n<p>3,076<\/p>\n<p>Sam Jones<\/p>\n<p>2,909<\/p>\n<p>Paul Pierce<\/p>\n<p>2,843<\/p>\n<p>Jaylen Brown<\/p>\n<p>2,778<\/p>\n<p>Robert Parish<\/p>\n<p>2,683<\/p>\n<p>Bill Russell<\/p>\n<p>2,673<\/p>\n<p>Tom Heinsohn<\/p>\n<p>2,058<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-12\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7v\">Brown is seventh all-time in steals. <\/p>\n<p>Player<\/p>\n<p>Total Steals<\/p>\n<p>Paul Pierce<\/p>\n<p>1,583<\/p>\n<p>Larry Bird<\/p>\n<p>1,556<\/p>\n<p>Rajon Rondo<\/p>\n<p>990<\/p>\n<p>Marcus Smart<\/p>\n<p>914<\/p>\n<p>Robert Parish<\/p>\n<p>873<\/p>\n<p>Antoine Walker<\/p>\n<p>828<\/p>\n<p>Jaylen Brown<\/p>\n<p>684<\/p>\n<p>Dee Brown<\/p>\n<p>675<\/p>\n<p>Danny Ainge<\/p>\n<p>671<\/p>\n<p>Jayson Tatum<\/p>\n<p>661<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-14\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"80\">Brown is 42nd overall in steals per game, at 1.0.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-15\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"83\">Brown is 17th overall in total rebounds (3,700), but he&#8217;s seventh overall in defensive rebounds<\/p>\n<p>Player<\/p>\n<p>Defensive Rebounds<\/p>\n<p>Robert Parish<\/p>\n<p>7,601<\/p>\n<p>Larry Bird<\/p>\n<p>7,217<\/p>\n<p>Paul Pierce<\/p>\n<p>5,643<\/p>\n<p>Dave Cowens<\/p>\n<p>4,921<\/p>\n<p>Kevin McHale<\/p>\n<p>4,764<\/p>\n<p>Jayson Tatum<\/p>\n<p>3,933<\/p>\n<p>Antoine Walker<\/p>\n<p>3,463<\/p>\n<p>Jaylen Brown<\/p>\n<p>3,013<\/p>\n<p>Kevin Garnett<\/p>\n<p>2,786<\/p>\n<p>Al Horford<\/p>\n<p>2,495<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-17\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"88\">You&#8217;ll notice that Bill Russell is not on this list despite his 21,620 total rebounds, which is second all-time to Wilt Chamberlain&#8217;s 23,924. That&#8217;s because the NBA didn&#8217;t start breaking down rebounding into offensive and defensive until the 1973-74 season. So while Russell undoubtedly leads Boston in total defensive rebounds, we don&#8217;t know what that number actually is, so he doesn&#8217;t appear on the list. <\/p>\n<p>Something similar can be said for blocks and steals, which also didn&#8217;t begin as official stats until &#8217;73-74. Russell should lead the Celtics in blocks but those weren&#8217;t counted in his day. He should also be somewhere at or near the top of the steals list. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-18\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8b\">Wrapping up the look at Brown&#8217;s final standing after 10 seaons, here&#8217;s where he lands in some other statistical categories all time. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-19\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8e\">Games Played: 15th (674)<br \/>Minutes Played: 14th (20,908)<br \/>Total FG: 11th (5,034)<br \/>Total FGA: 15th (10,533) <br \/>Total FT: 16th (2,122)<br \/>Total FTA: 16th (2,872)<br \/>Assists: 18th (1,953)<br \/>Blocks: 18th (255)<br \/>Turnovers: 6th (1,536)<br \/>Playoff Games Played: 7th (142)<br \/>Playoff Rebounds: 12th (811)<br \/>Playoff Assists: 14th (369)<br \/>Playoff Steals: T-6th (140, Dennis Johnson)<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.minutemediacdn.com\/platform\/google_discover_icon.svg\" class=\"shrink-0\"\/>Add us as a preferred source on Google<a aria-label=\"Follow si.com on Google News\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/preferences\/source?q=si.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" class=\"flex h-[30px] w-[30px] shrink-0 items-center justify-center rounded-full bg-primary font-group-large text-sm font-medium text-white transition-colors hover:bg-secondary focus:bg-secondary md:w-auto md:gap-2.5 md:px-4 md:py-[5px]\">Follow<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jaylen Brown spent 10 seasons playing 674 regular season games for the Boston Celtics before being traded to&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":787517,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[64],"tags":[355,99],"class_list":["post-787516","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nba","tag-nba","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/787516","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=787516"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/787516\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/787517"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=787516"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=787516"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=787516"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
