-- Jaylen Brown is on vacation in Egypt with his family and took time to hit a basketball court at Cairo American College for a pick-up game.
And his opponents wish he hadn't.
A video of Brown's flashy crossover during what everyone thought was a friendly game is now making the rounds and it is nasty.

-- Sam Adams is doing its part to support the Bruins in the Stanley Cup Final and announced it will release a special beer for the series.
Samuel Adams' limited edition Black & Gold brew is a nod to the team's colors and is a medium-bodied lager with chocolate notes, a hint of coffee and a slightly sweet and roasted malt flavor.
The company also said the Black & Gold is a deep ruby black color and has 4.9% ABV.
We want the cup, so to cheer on our favorite hockey team, we're announcing a limited-release of Black & Gold, a Bavarian-inspired black lager. Head down to our Boston brewery at 3:00pm on 6/3 to get your 4-pack of 16 oz cans. pic.twitter.com/BTwQ8Iuqbl
