Celtics Fan’s Encounter With Jayson Tatum Goes Viral

A Boston Celtics fan’s encounter with Jayson Tatum during a game this week caused something of a stir.

Tatum, who goes back and forth between being Boston’s first and second-best player, has had a crazy year.

The highs have been high – i.e. winning his first NBA championship. And the lows have been low – playing terribly in the 2024 NBA Finals and getting benched in the Olympics for a pretty brutal reason.

Fortunately for Tatum, ever since the 2024-25 NBA season tipped off, he has been balling out.

Big picture, the Celtics are firing on all cylinders right now. They could easily repeat in 2025 as champs.

And Tatum, for all the heat he has taken, looks fantastic.

Will Tatum right last year’s wrong and add a Finals MVP to his mantle this season? An answer one way or another is coming soon enough.
