NBC Sports Boston reporter and anchor Trenni Kusnierek returned to Boston Public Radio on Tuesday, where she discussed all the latest news from the hectic world of COVID-era sports. During the conversation, she touched on the activism of Celtics guard Jaylen Brown, who's been using postgame interviews in the NBA bubble to highlight concerns around issues like mental health in the NBA and police violence.
"I give him a lot of credit,” Kusnierek said. “Because one, he talks about things that a lot of people are afraid to talk about, [and] he doesn’t worry about how it’s going to affect whether or not people like him as a player. But two, Jaylen doesn’t just talk about things – Jaylen researches, Jaylen does his homework. He does all of the back work needed to fully understand the causes that he gets behind."
