Recently, Jaylen Brown’s social media actions generated a lot of attention. In the middle of an argument with a fan, one of his tweets with strong language went viral. Many speculated that someone had hacked his account. This incident led to Atlanta Hawks star Trae Young unfollowing Brown, which sparked a mix of reactions from the NBA community.
On Tuesday, Jaylen Brown’s X account sent out a bunch of weird tweets. One of them, “F**k Tatum,” seemed to be a jab at his friend Jayson Tatum and went viral soon.
This incident followed the Celtic star’s recent snub from Team USA. So, rumors started to spread that he and Tatum might be breaking up. Following this, Hawks’ point guard Trae Young, who was apparently still very close with Tatum, suddenly unfollowed Brown’s Twitter account.
NBA Alerts later confirmed this information on X. However, some people think Brown’s account was hacked because some of his tweets seemed to support cryptocurrency, making individuals question whether they were real.

The incident sparked a social media frenzy. Jaylen Brown’s comment was clearly out of line, but some fans believe his account was hacked.
Vengeancewood tweeted, “Trae’s tired of Brown pushing crypto.”
Meanwhile, Stewart added, “Who does he think he is?!?”
Roaring_reigns suggested that Trae Young unfollowed Jaylen Brown out of “jealousy,” claiming, “Jealous because Jaylen is way better.”
However, there were people who backed Young’s choice and showed issues with Brown’s character. “He’s annoying as hell, I don’t blame Trae,” a fan said.
Someone other joined in with, “YESSIR, TRAE, F**K HIM.”
