Celtics Twitter reacts to Kevin Garnett’s No. 5 jersey going up to the rafters

It was a moment for the ages — and this is how Celtics fans and media reacted to it.

The Boston Celtics raised Hall of Fame big man Kevin Garnett‘s No. 5 jersey up to the rafters at TD Garden on Sunday afternoon after their unfortunate loss to the Dallas Mavericks, with familiar faces spanning decades of the storied franchise’s history in attendance.

Many of Garnett’s friends and peers who could not make the event also gave their kudos via prepared video messages, with the big day for the Big Ticket capped off with a very public end to the feud between himself and former teammate Ray Allen, with the pair joined by fellow Banner 17 champion Paul Pierce for an embrace.

Celtics fans, alumni, and the wider NBA world reacted to the big event on Twitter as well — let’s take a look at some of their responses to seeing No. 5 ascend up to the rafters.
