Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown is kind to everyone, unless you’re his opponent on the court or the sneaker giant Nike. His latest act of kindness has once again won over the internet for all the right reasons.

A touching video of the Celtics shooting guard gently instructing a young fan on proper shooting form has gone viral on social media. This adorable moment reminds fans that some of his assists happen off the court as well.

Brown recently underwent arthroscopic surgery on his right knee to address a partially torn meniscus he had been playing through during the 2025 NBA Playoffs. He had been dealing with persistent knee pain since February.

Despite the discomfort, he averaged 22.1 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 3.9 assists in 11 playoff games. After the Celtics were eliminated in the second round, reports revealed that he had been receiving pain management injections to keep playing. Fans were shocked to learn he was fighting through such a serious injury.

The good news is that he is recovering well after the surgery and has even been attending community events, once again winning over fans’ hearts. All this admiration surged after a viral clip showed the Celtics star gently teaching a young fan how to square up and shoot before signing his basketball.

The moment, captured during a community event at the Berkshire Partners Blue Hill Club in Dorchester, Massachusetts, has been widely shared on social media. One user called it “so wholesome ,” while another summed up the heartwarming gesture in a single word: “Adorable.”

Longtime followers of Brown’s community efforts weren’t surprised. As one noted, “JB’s been doing this kind of stuff for years. It’s wonderful to see! It clearly means a lot esp to the kids!”

Thanks for sharing, Noa! I always love your reporting on the players & the community connections they foster. Based on what people who live out in Boston have said, JB’s been doing this kind of stuff for yrs now. It’s wonderful to see! It clearly means a lot esp to the kids!

On Thursday, Brown arrived at the event carrying a single crutch to support his recovering knee. But that didn’t stop him from spending hours with those small kids. He smiled for photos, talked with families, and connected with students of all ages.

It has been reported that he gifted 125 pairs of his 741 Performance sneakers to the children who attended the event. When a reporter asked what he enjoyed most about events like this, the 28-year-old gave a heartfelt answer. He said, “To be honest, I feel like this stuff kind of helps heal the soul– being able to touch the community, being a member of your community.”

Brown’s passion for giving back to the community isn’t anything new. Through his 7uice Foundation, he’s worked to empower youth by supporting education, leadership, and financial literacy. The foundation’s Bridge Program is particularly empowering for individuals who aspire to have careers in STEM or STEAM.

Brown’s most meaningful assist this week seems to come from a simple, adorable moment with a young fan.

A Nigerian university has come under fire after a video of staff seemingly touching female students to check whether or not they were wearing a bra ahead of taking an exam went viral online.

In the clip, several ladies in attendance at Olabisi Onabanjo University in south-western Ogun State could be seen queueing up to enter the facilities examination all before being approached by staff.

The professors – all of whom were female – could then be seen touching the chest regions of the students as they prepared to sit their tests.

According to CNN, students confirmed the video was shot at their university, however, it is unknown when the video was taken. Olabisi Onabanjo University have yet to officially comment on the incident.

Following immediate backlash prompted by the video doing the rounds on social media, a student leader at the university attempted to defend the protocol, claiming that refusing to wear a bra goes against the institute’s dress code.

Said dress code, they added, assists in maintaining ‘a distraction-free environment’, the BBC reports. The unnamed student leader acknowledged, however, that the policy on clothing being enforced in such a way could be seen as controversial.

A Human Right Network campaign member has also spoken out on the hotly-debated clip, telling the BBC that the female students in the video are well within their right to sue the university for violation.

Haruna Ayagi told the publication: “Unwarranted touches on another person’s body is a violation and could lead to legal action. The university is wrong to adopt this method to curb indecent dressing.”

One of the female students in the video has since come forward, anonymously telling the publication that the university’s strict clothing code is a moral issue, adding that the institution has no religious alignments.

However, she further claimed that their clothes were always being checked.

The President of Olabisi Onabanjo University’s student union, Muizz Olatunji, has since reiterated the aim behind the intimate uniform checks online, and even shared a screenshot of the institution’s official dress code on X.

In the ‘indecent dressing’ code, it lists a ban on attire ‘capable of making the same or opposite sex to lust after the student in an indecent manner’, such as ‘any dressing by a student which shows sensitive parts of the student’s body, such as breasts, buttocks, nipples and belly-buttons’.

“[The university promotes] a dress-code policy aimed at maintaining a respectful and distraction-free environment, encouraging students to dress modestly and in line with the institution’s values,” Olatunji continued.

In his statement, the student union rep added that the policy is far from new, and that the union had ‘engaged with the institution to explore alternative approaches to addressing indecent dressing, focusing on respectful and dignified interactions between students and staff’ previously.

US President Donald Trump hosted the Juventus men’s football team at the Oval Office in Washington D.C., just a day before the club began its FIFA Club World Cup 2025 campaign. A video from the meeting between Donald Trump and the Juventus team from Tuesday, June 17, has now gone viral wherein the President asked the players whether women can make their team, and it left the players completely speechless for a little while.

The question from Donald Trump to Juventus players, including US internationals Weston McKennie and Timothy Weah, read, “Could a woman make your team, fellas?,” to which they had no answer while having a nervous smile on their faces. Shortly after, when the 79-year-old put the question to the club general manager, Damien Comolli, he responded, “We have a very good women’s team,” who are the current Serie A Femminile champions.

Watch the video here:

Despite that, Donald Trump kept the chat going, and said, “But they should be playing with women. He’s being very diplomatic.” It is important to note that in February of this year, the US President had signed an executive order to ban the transgender athletes from competing in women’s sports, and in the immediate aftermath, the human rights activists had called it a discriminatory move.

After getting done with the awkward meeting with Donald Trump, Juventus players went down to business the next day in their opening Group G clash of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 at the Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. They managed to defeat Al-Ain 5-0 in a one-sided contest, with the likes of Randal Kolo Muani and Francisco Conceicao scoring twice, while Kenan Yildiz scored once.

In the second Group G clash of the tournament, Juventus will be taking on Wydad AC in Philadelphia on Sunday, June 22, just prior to the big fixture against Manchester City coming their way in Orlando.
