The Golden State Warriors' 2024-25 season concluded with a disappointing 4-1 series loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves in the Western Conference semifinals. Finishing the regular season with a 48-34 record, the Warriors entered the playoffs with high hopes, especially after acquiring Jimmy Butler midseason to bolster their roster.
However, their postseason aspirations were severely hampered by the absence of Stephen Curry, who suffered a left hamstring strain in Game 1 against Minnesota, leaving the team without its primary offensive catalyst for the remainder of that series.
Amid the offseason, a video surfaced showing Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown attending a video shoot featuring Curry and YouTuber MrBeast. The behind-the scenes footage, originally uploaded by Jon Youshaei on YouTube, captured Brown dapping up Curry and sharing a brief exchange with the Warriors star.
This sparked a flurry of speculation among fans about a potential collaboration or even a future team-up between the two stars.
"Jaylen Brown always has love for the Bay ever since he went to college out here," one fan wrote.
"Only if this was possible," another fan said.
"JB TO THE DUBS," a fan mentioned.
"Man this collab is wild lol," another fan added.

"JB a big fan of 30 he knows ball," another fan remarked.
"JB is a Cal alum, so a return to the Bay for him would make alot of sense," said another.
"Is curry coming to Boston," one asked.
"JK for JB," one proposed, referencing Jonathan Kuminga.
While the video fueled speculation, the reality of Brown joining the Warriors remains highly unlikely. The Celtics, dealing with Jayson Tatum's Achilles injury and looming salary cap challenges, face decisions about their roster's future. Reports suggest that while Brown's trade value is substantial, the Celtics view him as a core piece alongside Tatum and have no intention of trading him (via Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints).
