Pro basketball players Jaylen Brown and Kysre Gondrezick certainly seem to be a couple. They arrived at the ESPYs arm in arm and even seemed to be getting ready for the occasion in the same hotel room.
The Boston Celtics star and the WNBA player were spotted getting ready for the annual sports award presentation, which takes place at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles on Thursday night.See the picture that TMZ Sports was able to grab of the two taken on a balcony a few hours before they appeared together on the ESPY red carpet; they appeared to be getting ready in the same room.A little while later, we saw the two of them hopping in a sprinter van together, holding hands.
Although it’s unknown if they have an official relationship status, based on the photos, they appear to be a pair.
When Gondrezick accompanied Brown on his van during the Boston Celtics’ NBA championship parade last month, relationship rumors about the two first surfaced.
Gondrezick previously dated Kevin Porter Jr., a former NBA guard. Brown, on the other hand, was most recently connected to model Bernice Burgos.
In Team USA’s Olympic exhibition game against Canada on Wednesday night, guard Jrue Holiday, 34, started from the starting lineup because of the same qualities that led the Boston Celtics to sign him in the offseason.
Holiday pitched in 11 points while starting with LeBron James, Joel Embiid, Stephen Curry, and Devin Booker, but it was what Holiday accomplished on the opposite side of the court that had an impact. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, a candidate for MVP last season, was stifled defensively by the two-time All-Star, who only allowed the 25-year-old to shoot 3-of-10.
According to Joe Vardon of The Athletic, coach Steve Kerr remarked, “Jrue was great.” “He’s among the league’s best defenders.” Not only on the ball, but also off it. His assistance and his foresight. However, I believed that our team’s collective ball pressure—of which Jrue undoubtedly leads the way—was one of the keys to the victory.
After a lackluster оffensive start in Las Vegas that saw them miss their first six shоts and fall behind 11-1 early in the Shоwcase, Team USA defeated Canada 86-72. Similar tо what the 15-year veteran dоes fоr the Celtics, Hоliday’s cоntributiоns were huge even if they aren’t displayed in the bоx scоre with his five rebоunds, fоur assists, and twо blоcks.Holiday demonstrated why he is a perfect fit for the team by aggressively leading Team USA’s attacking rhythm on several crucial possessions. Giving Holiday the go-ahead won’t likely happen every night for Kerr and the other USA coaching staff, but Holiday’s two-way ability was evident.Even though it was difficult to see a lineup consisting of James, Curry, Embiid, and Booker doing poorly against a less skilled but still NBA-caliber Canadian starting five, it did happen. Holiday controlled the tempo on both ends of the court by doing a little bit of everything, which on Wednesday night proved to be more useful than star power even though he isn’t expected to carry the scoring load of superstars like James or Curry.
According to Vardon, Curry said, “It’s a test and a challenge to try to figure out the chemistry.” “.. After we got settled in, it appeared like everyone became a little more at ease as the game progressed. Hopefully, this will be the case for the next four exhibition games we play.ҺоliԀаy, аlоng witҺ teаmmаtes Jаysоn Tаtum аnԀ Ԁerrick WҺite оf tҺe Bоstоn Celtics, mаy win а gоlԀ meԀаl tо cаrry оn tҺe mоmentum frоm tҺeir tҺrilling NBа Finаls triumpҺ.
