Jaylen Brown’s offseason was clouded with trade rumors, but things took a more personal turn when his father, Marselles Brown, was arrested on Aug. 21.

Brown’s attorney, Arnold Weinstock, spoke in his defense.

“Everything I know, and I've known Mr. Brown for quite some time, I do not believe that he initiated anything, and he is telling me that everything that occurred was him trying to defend himself after he was struck,” Weinstock said on Aug. 21, via Cleveland.com.

Brown, who has a complicated relationship with his father, has remained silent about the situation.
