Boston opened as a +300 favorite to lift the Larry O’Brien trophy again next season, due in large part to the fact that it will return both Jrue Holiday and Derrick White in its backcourt, Jayson Tatum on the wing, and in the eyes of FOX Sports’ Paul Pierce, the best player in the league Jaylen Brown.

“Right now, Jayle Brown is the best player in the world. Today, Jaylen Brown is on top of the mountain. Larry Bird Trophy, Bill Russell Trophy and [Larry O’Brien trophy]. He put it all together.”
