Celtics’ Jayson Tatum on his rise to NBA stardom, his hair, and tiny jerseys on Kevin Hart’s ‘Cold As Balls’

Tatum talks about his draft experience, the hard work he put in, and the mentors who guided him along the way.

In the first episode of season nine of Kevin Hart’s “Cold as Balls,” Hart and guest Jayson Tatum things kick off with some repartee between the duo as they discuss everything from Tatum’s early basketball ambitions to his recent experiences in the NBA. The St. Louis native shares his journey from being a young basketball prospect to realizing his dream of becoming an NBA star.

Tatum talks about his draft experience, the hard work he put in, and the mentors who guided him along the way. The Duke alum also reflects on the pivotal moment when he realized he could make it to the NBA. The pair discuss the importance of peer recognition in the league and staying focused on one’s goals despite critics — and have a blast doing it despite Tatum being as deep as something into a giant tub of ice water.
