WHAT HAPPENED?
The Celtics clinched a berth in the Eastern Conference playoffs with a 127-112 victory over the Suns, and the England star was there to take all the action in courtside. Postgame, the 22-year-old stepped onto the court with the team and posed for photos with Brown before the duo swapped and signed their respective shirts.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
The Arsenal star is currently on a break before departing with England for the international window, when they will play friendlies against Brazil and Belgium. With no match at the weekend, the winger was given a bit of free time, and he opted to go and spend it courtside at a Celtics game.
DID YOU KNOW?
Saka stands 5'10 on the pitch, but pictured next to Brown, he looks significantly smaller! That's because the shooting guard for the Celtics stands 6'6 on the court.
