Since Danny Ainge decided to build around Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, there has been endless talk about how they would never win together. Nonetheless, last June, the two Boston Celtics wings became NBA champions and raised Banner 18. At the dawn of a new NBA season, are the Jays now the best duo in the league?
Let’s brainstorm and select some of their contemporaries. I picked the five duos I consider the best in the league at the moment. Feel free to drop your top-5 in the comments. Here are mine:
- Nikola Jokic & Jamal Murray
- LeBron James & Anthony Davis
- Giannis Antetokounmpo & Damian Lillard
- Kevin Durant & Devin Booker
- Luka Doncic & Kyrie Irving
Among this list, Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum stand out for different reasons.
