Jaylen Brown is one of the dynamic duo of the Boston Celtics. Along with Jayson Tatum, he had led Boston to their second Eastern Conference Finals in two years. Currently, the series is all squared up at 3-3 with Game seven of the series. The last time these two teams met in the playoffs, was in the Orlando bubble. And Jaylen might have not even gone to the bubble to play, if not for this family member.

In an old interview with talk show host Ellen, Jaylen talked about how his grandfather motivated him to play in the bubble. Jaylen introduced his grandfather by saying, “He is like the toughest guy I have ever met by the way … I gotta introduce him he is like a superhero.” Jaylen continued, “He is been to the Vietnam War, he has been shot in the head twice, he has had heart attacks, cancer, covid all at the same time and has beaten it all.”
