Jaylen Brown Reacts to Miami Heat Trading for Terry Rozier

Terry Rozier spent the first four seasons of his NBA career with the Celtics, who drafted him in the first round of the 2015 NBA Draft.

On Tuesday, the Miami Heat traded point guard Kyle Lowry along with a 2027 first-round pick to the Charlotte Hornets in exchange for Terry Rozier.

Rozier's former teammate in Jaylen Brown recently reacted to the news and is a fan of the trade from Miami's perspective.

"I think Terry is already a native of Miami so I think it definitely made sense," Brown said. "So I’m happy for him, he kind of fits in (to what) their culture represents."

Brown and the Celtics will face off against Rozier and the Heat on Thursday night in a rematch of the 2023 Eastern Conference Finals.
