Jaylen Brown Says Stephen Curry ‘Wouldn’t Beat Him’ One-on-One

He made the claim on a Twitch stream with rapper DDG, citing a size mismatch.

Overview

  • Brown said, “It’s like weight classes… he’s too small,” asserting on stream that Curry would not beat him in a 1-on-1.
  • The Celtics wing’s case leaned on listed measurements of roughly 6'6", 223 pounds versus Curry at about 6'2", 185 pounds.
  • DDG disagreed during the exchange and upped the debate by saying he believes Curry could even beat Michael Jordan in his prime.
  • Coverage set the comments against CelticsWarriors history, noting Golden State’s 2022 Finals win and Boston’s 125–85 rout on January 20, 2025.
  • Analysts and fans weighed Brown’s physical edge against Curry’s elite shooting and ball-handling, with no formal 1-on-1 planned as the teams’ next meetings are set for February 19 and March 18.
