Jaylen Brown was featured on TIME Magazine’s ‘100 Next’ list

After an eventful year both on and off the court, Jaylen Brown now has one more thing to add to his list of accomplishments: featuring on the cover of TIME Magazine.

With a basketball spinning atop his finger, the 27-year-old posed for the cover of the magazine announcing TIME’s 2024 “100 Next” list. He is the first Celtics player to be on the magazine’s cover since Larry Bird almost 40 years ago.

The list aims to honor those that are “not waiting long in life to make an impact” and will “play an important role in leading the future,” writes Sam Jacobs, TIME’s editor-in-chief.
