After his big night against the Los Angeles Lakers, Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown got his groove on with teammates Tristan Thompson and Kemba Walker.

While Brown was being interviewed by Reggie Miller and Kevin Harlan, Walker suddenly hugged him from behind as a congratulation for his 40-point outburst for the Celtics against the defending champions. Then, big man Tristan Thompson popped out of nowhere and got jiggy with him.

Brown was a stellar 17-of-20 from the field, 3-of-5 from deep, and 3-of-3 from the free-throw line. The All-Star was definitely feeling it all night, so much so that he snagged the record as the first player in Celtics history with a 40-piece on 85 percent shooting.

Brown has certainly gone a long way since entering the league with the Celtics in 2016 as the third overall pick in the draft. Analysts and fans were certain of his talent. But some may have been caught off guard that he would develop this quickly and become an unstoppable force.

The 2020-21 NBA season may be tagged as Brown's breakout year with the Celtics. After all, he was selected as an All-Star for the first time in his career. Also, he's averaging 24.4 points on 48.5 percent shooting which are career-highs.

The Celtics are now on a five-game winning streak and seem to be peaking at the right time. The regular season has been tough for the Brad Stevens-coached squad. But they're picking up that momentum with the playoffs just around the corner.
