Jaylen Brown had a really rough start in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals on Monday night.
Brown began the game shooting just 1-for-9 as the Boston Celtics fell behind the Cleveland Cavaliers. He missed a layup, a couple of threes, and he two shots blocked by Kyle Korver and a third by Larry Nance Jr.

As if all that weren’t bad enough, he had a double-whammy at the end of the first quarter. Not only did Brown defy coach Brad Stevens’ instructions to hold for the last possession of the quarter, but he also missed a dunk.

Brown finally subbed out in the second quarter with his team down by 18. They began to narrow the gap some.
The game was starting out as one of Brown’s worst of the postseason.
