A week prior, Jaylen Brown, 26, signed a momentous five-year agreement with the Boston Celtics, valued at an extraordinary $304 million. Brown has been awarded a contract higher than any other Supermax agreement, positioning him among the best-paid players in the league.

Brown was asked a probing question at a media lab press conference that strayed from the standard sports interview fare. A half-decade of immense wealth lay ahead, and a journalist wanted to know about the plans. Visionary was Brown’s response, in short.

His aspiration was to start a project that would create a “Black Wall Street” in Boston’s suburbs. To create a better quality of life for underprivileged communities, he aimed to directly address the problem of wealth disparity by developing novel job opportunities and businesses.
