Many wondered how Jaylen Brown would look in 2022-23 coming off the Boston Celtics’ NBA Finals run.
So far, for two out of his first three games, he has been absolutely stellar.
Brown’s on-the-court play isn’t the only reason he is making headlines these days, though.
Recently, eagle-eyed observers (not unlike the ones that revealed Jayson Tatum was dating an R&B star) noticed an interesting guest at one of his Celtics games.
“This week, during the season opening Boston Celtics game, Bernice Burgos was sitting courtside seemingly cheering on her new man,” SideAction reported.
“The 25 year old baller was spotted in the club with Bernice a few weeks ago, and since then we’ve been scooped the couple has been seen out and about all over Boston and Atlanta, where Jaylen lives off season.”
The visual evidence from Boston’s recent game speaks for itself:
Burgos, as noted, is an extremely popular social media influencer. She boasts nearly 7 million followers on the platform.
She also routinely goes viral for posts like this:

Brown went viral earlier this summer for his surprising reaction to how the Celtics decided to handle the Ime Udoka situation.
Since then, though – he has maintained a relatively low profile. He has kept his head down and done work on the court.
It goes without saying that it is still extremely early in the new season, but so far Brown is on pace for a career year.
The 25-year-old is averaging 25.0 points per game on 51 percent shooting from the field and 88.9 percent shooting from the free throw line. All career bests.
Yikes LeBron. https://t.co/meii5SKhP9

Time will tell if Brown is able to sustain this run, but if he does, this could be a truly special campaign for him. He seems to be thriving both on and off the court.
How long will the good times last?
Time will tell.
