Jaylen Brown appears to grab Josh Hart's crotch in heated Knicks-Celtics moment

Jaylen Brown’s ball-handling skills appear to be just fine.

During the Game 5 matchup at TD Garden, the Celtics player was seen touching Josh Hart inappropriately while trying to maneuver around a screen in the beginning of the second half.

Hart did not take kindly to the apparent cup-check, shoving Brown in a testy exchange over that resulted in technical fouls for both.

Before eventually securing a 127-102 victory, Brown and his team were facing tough competition from the Knicks but managed to maintain the lead, ensuring a Game 6 at Madison Square Garden on Friday.

Hart led the Knicks with 24 points and seven rebounds. Brown tallied 26 points, 12 assists and eight rebounds.

The intensity of the game increased early on, particularly in the first quarter where Brown was knocked to the floor by what seemed to be an intentional elbow from Jalen Brunson — a move that resulted in Hart also getting hit in the face by Luke Kornet while vying for position under the basket.

Hart, despite being bloodied, stayed in the game.
