Amid the hoopla at Friday’s parade, Celtics star Jaylen Brown took a moment to honor late local legend Terrence Clarke.
Brown held up a custom-made, black and green, No. 5 Clarke Celtics jersey from his duck boat so the world could see.
Clarke, who was born and raised in Boston, died in a car crash at age 19 in April 2021. He was considered to be a potential lottery pick in the NBA Draft that year.
Before his passing, he developed a strong bond with Brown. In the years since, Brown has made a conscious effort to fortify Clarke’s legacy.
