This isn’t the first time where he left a young ball fan jumping in joy. Over the years, he has created various wholesome moments with his young fans. Notably, during the US players’ visit to Australia for an exhibition game in 2019, a young Aussie shouted JT’s name when the team bus arrived at the stadium. Responding to the fan’s call, Tatum walked up to the kid and signed his ball.

After trading away Spencer Dinwiddie, the Nets face their second game with Dennis Schroder in the line-up. The German baller couldn’t make much impact as he came off the bench, dropping 9 points with 5 rebounds. It was Cam Thomas and Mikal Bridges who kept them afloat, dropping 53 points together.
On the other end, the Celtics dominated the game right from the word get go. Even though the team lapsed a bit in the last quarter, it didn’t affect the result of the game. It was an all-round performance from the starting line, spearheaded by JT’s 41 points. The rest of the line-up supported him with 65 points.
