Grant Hill has once again drawn the ire of Jaylen Brown.
Brown very clearly felt slighted when Hill did not pick the Celtics star to be on Team USA for the Paris Olympics. Brown felt the omission was due in part to his icy relationship with Nike, and he teased revelatory information about the ongoing saga.
Hill recently appeared on “The Dan Patrick Show” and claimed it was a “basketball decision” to leave Brown off the roster, not any kind of “conspiracy theory.” Those remarks did not sit well with the 2024 NBA Finals MVP, who vocalized his frustration Sunday morning on X.
“Grant Hill calling me a conspiracy theorist is disappointing I’ve been a VP since I was 21 years old I have a great understanding,” Brown posted to the platform formerly known as Twitter.

We will have to wait and see how much more Brown is willing to divulge about the situation. As for Team USA, it will begin group-stage play Sunday morning with a matchup against Nikola Jokic and Serbia.
Three of Brown’s Celtics teammates — Jayson Tatum, Jrue Holiday and Derrick White — are members of the men’s Olympic basketball team, which will be looking for its fifth straight gold medal in France.
