Celtics’ Jaylen Brown talks fighting complacency, relationship with the media, and more on ‘Hot Ones’

A busy summer rolls on for Celtics star Jaylen Brown, who appeared this week on the popular YouTube interview show “Hot Ones,” where guests answer questions while eating progressively spicier chicken wings.

Brown touched on a number of topics with host Sean Evans, from defending a title to the most important people in NBA history — Michael Jordan and Bill Russell were among Brown’s choices — to Joe Mazzulla’s unique coaching approach.

Brown was first asked about how the mind-set changes for the Celtics as they become the hunted as defending champions this season.
