Now what’s next in this tale of “payback”? Well, it’s about getting back at Jayson for blocking Deuce’s shot. In this case, Deuce might be plotting his next move to outsmart his dad on the basketball court!
We know Kevin Garnett is excited to see it happen. Of course, this isn’t the first interaction between Kevin Garnett and Jayson Tatum. Earlier this year, the Celtics’ #0 gave a heartwarming shoutout to The Big Ticket.
Respect between the two Celtic greats
Ahead of the pivotal game 7 matchup against the Miami Heat, JT decided to share a powerful message that Garnett once shared with the world. After winning the championship with Boston in 2008, KG famously yelled out, “Anything is possible!”
The words are basically a part of league history now. And Tatum decided to repurpose them as his team faced a difficult Eastern Conference Finals matchup. JT arrived for the game wearing a beige jacket, with the famous Garnett slogan on the front.
On the back, was a picture of The Big Ticket in his Celtics jersey. KG saw the post and immediately thanked the young buck before wishing him luck for his contest.
