East Conf. Finals - Game 3: Boston Celtics 86-116 Cleveland Cavaliers - Celtics' Player Ratings

Jaylen Brown - 5/10

#7 Jaylen Brown guarding LeBron James

Stat line: 10 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 block and 5 fouls on 3-8 FG's

In comparison to the performances he put up in Games 1 & 2, Jaylen Brown had one to forget in Game 3. Through 2 games, he was the team's highest scorer in this series and Tyronn Lue pointed out that the Cavaliers paid extra attention to ensure he doesn't get another hot start early.

Hot starts in the first quarter have been the reason for his back-to-back 23-point showings in this series.

With the additional defense, Brown also had foul trouble to overcome which he eventually did, only finishing with 10 points on a decent 3-of-8 shooting. Considering the fact that he might not have had any rhythm to fall back on, that's a decent percentage to shoot from the field.
