Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown criticized Stephen A. Smith and ESPN for their coverage of his recent comments, calling the network “unethical” as part of an appearance at the Sports Beach Cannes event in France on Wednesday, June 24.
Brown was a featured speaker on a panel called, “The Spiritual Game” during the annual conference, which bills itself as “a global platform connecting brands, athletes and marketers through lived experiences.” Footage of his comments, which come in the midst of speculation about his future with the Celtics after being included in Giannis Antetokounmpo trade talks, began to circulate on social media via an incomplete clip.

But based on what Brown can be heard saying, his response is related to the “favorite year” comments that raised eyebrows around the league at the end of Boston’s 2025-26 campaign in which Brown starred mostly without an injured Jayson Tatum.
