All eyes were on Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown on Monday, not for his skills on the court but for his courtside companions at a game in Las Vegas.
Brown was spotted courtside sitting with WNBA rookie Angel Reese and his girlfriend, Kysre Gondrezick, a free agent in the WNBA who briefly played with Reese on the Chicago Sky.
The trio were in Vegas to watch the NBA summer league game between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Boston Celtics, who defeated Bronny James and the Lakers on Monday 88-74.

All eyes were on the fashionable trio, who signed autographs and appeared to enjoy the game. At one point, Brown appeared to say to Reese and Gondrezick, “I don’t think Bronny is a pro,” referring to the son of NBA all-time scoring leader LeBron James. A clip of the exchange went viral and Brown backtracked on X not long after.

“It’s a flex to have your son alongside you in the nba it reflects greatness and longevity! Bronny has all the tools around him to be successful I look forward to watching his growth,” Brown said in the post.
Reese, an All-Star forward who has quickly made a mark in the WNBA, has remained close friends with Gondrezick, who was cut by the Sky on June 28.
Brown appeared to confirm his relationship with Gondrezick when the pair walked the carpet together at the ESPY Awards on July 11, PEOPLE reported. At the ESPYs, Brown received the “Best Championship Performance” award.
