Celtics star Jaylen Brown promised a “big reward” for whoever found his branded “7uice” ring, which he lost during Boston’s championship parade on June 21. 

The All-Star wing made good on his promise Tuesday after a couple of Celtics fans found his missing jewelry a week and a half after Boston’s title festivities. 

“Got it back. Thank you to Luke and Adi,” Brown wrote on X Tuesday evening — displaying his returned ring. “I’ll see you courtside at the [ring emjoi] ceremony.”

In a video posted from Brown’s Instagram account, the two fans returning his custom “7uice” ring are greeted by an incognito Brown — sporting sunglasses and a hoodie — on Causeway Street after handing off the ring.

Based on Brown’s post on X, it looks as though the two Good Samaritans will get a courtside seats at TD Garden when Brown and the rest of his teammates get their championship rings on the parquet floor during the Celtics’ home opener for the 2024-25 season. 

Brown — who took home both Eastern Conference Finals MVP and NBA Finals MVP honors this spring — also gifted them both a signed basketball and signed jersey. 

Despite losing his ring during Boston’s celebration that stretched from TD Garden to Boylston Street, Brown seemed to enjoy his time on the iconic duck boats, hyping up the over 1,000,000 fans in attendance and wearing a t-shirt that read, “State Your Source” — a clear dig at ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith.
