BOSTON — Jaylen Brown seemingly showed mercy for the first time all night.
After posterizing Jaylin Williams with a vicious one-handed slam, Boston’s star guard stuck his right thumb out and held it up to his throat. He then began to slowly slide it to the side only to stop halfway.
But Brown didn’t actually want to spare OKC. He just didn’t want to spare the change, since the NBA fined him $25,000 the last time he did his throat-slashing celebration against Detroit in December 2024.
