Jaylen Brown on Grant Williams’ foul: He hit Jayson Tatum like it was a football game

“I think at the time of the match, that’s probably what stressed the Flagrant Two out,” Williams told Bobby Manning of CLNS Media. “It was a transition opportunity and I was trying to play with the ball. I actually reached over her body, and probably when you slow down the replay, it looks like I’m kind of making a play and chasing her. “JT is one of my closest friends in the league. There was no intentional attempt to harm him in any way. It was just one of those plays where he passes the ball quickly, at full speed, which only makes things worse. When I caught the ball afterwards, the ball was already out of his hand. I don’t think it leads to anything if the problem isn’t made worse after the fact. You see me raise my hand, say I fouled him trying to foul in transition, got held up by my teammates and left. -via BasketballNews / November 2, 2024
