Annual salary is close to 60 million! From the championship to the bargaining chip, he is the most overrated in the NBA

Who is the most overrated star player in the NBA? Then there is no doubt that Celtics star Jaylen Brown signed a super contract with the Celtics with a total value of US$290 million in five years. His annual salary is close to US$60 million, but now it has become a bargaining chip for the team because the Celtics boss has made it clear. It is necessary to send it away in this offseason to alleviate the team's salary pressure. From this aspect, we can see that the team really doesn't want him anymore, and from the perspective of data, Jaylen Brown has indeed regressed, which is a bit too big. This season, he averaged 22 points, five rebounds and four assists per game, with a shooting percentage of only 46%, of which the three-point shooting percentage was as low as 32%. And the increase is negative 0.5. In other words, when he was on the court, the Celtics were always losing to their opponents, and in Game 6 of this year's playoffs, the team defeated their opponents 38 points. Jaylen Brown's shooting percentage can be said to be very bad in the game. And it has been exposed now that the meniscus on his right knee has been completely torn, which shows that the player will have a huge decline in the new season.

The champion player of that year was even the FMVP player of the finals, but it turned out to be so far, which is really a bit sad. Although this player is very good at the shooting guard position, his annual salary is really too high. So now the outside world predicts that if the Celtics want to get rid of his junk contract, they will at least have to get a first-round draft pick. Or reward their potential young man White.

Otherwise, no team in the league will easily take over Jaylen Brown unless suckers like the Nets and the Clippers. Perhaps it is possible to choose to take over such players, after all, in the past few years, their two teams have always been good at receiving such injuries.
