Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown accused NBA officials of having an 'agenda' against him after his team’s playoff loss to the Philadelphia 76ers in Game 7.
Brown said referees were punishing him for being critical during the regular season, pointing to the season's offensive foul calls. 'They clearly had an agenda,' he said in a post-game livestream.
Brown also called out Joel Embiid for 'flopping' and getting favorable calls. Embiid finished with 34 points and 12 rebounds in the series-clinching 109-100 win.
Brown led the Celtics without injured star Jayson Tatum for most of the season, averaging 28.7 points per game. Boston finished second in the Eastern Conference with a 56-26 record.
