Philadelphia 76ers star Jaylen Brown is always one to open up to new experiences and try new things as he continues through life. He isn't just a basketball player and he wants people to know that about him as he moves forward.

Brown took classes at MIT while he was a member of the Boston Celtics, he enjoys surfing as shown by the GoPro footage found by Team USA swimmers, and he loves to learn new things and try different activities.

While on a trip to Nigeria, Brown decided to partake in a side quest. He got in the ring and decided to, hold your breath Sixers fans, participate in a boxing match.

Boxing is a great way to stay in shape, and with the new season continuing to approach, it would make sense that Brown would want to be in the best shape possible. The Sixers, and their fans, would also like him to stay as healthy as possible when considering their health history in recent years.
