Only a very small group of Boston Celtics have ever had the luck to score 50 points in a game, and in a game against the Orlando Magic at TD Garden on the second day of 2022, All-Star small forward Jaylen Brown joined that elite club of Celtics icons with a 50-point night that helped secure the win for Boston.
The list is a short one, with just seven players total on it counting the Georgia native, and one of his teammates happens to be one of two Celtics to ever do it more than once. But now Brown can compete to tie said teammate in that regard or perhaps even pass him.
But before we get ahead of ourselves, let’s take a look at the list of players who have dropped a 50-piece in green and white.
