You might think that the star of the Boston Celtics’ series’ clinching win against the defending champion Milwaukee Bucks would be the unlikely hero who came out of nowhere to hit a career-high 27 points on 7 made 3-pointers in Grant Williams, or at least All-Star forward Jayson Tatum, who kept the team afloat through several tough patches with his 23 points, 6 rebounds, and 8 assists.
But the show at the podium after the big win was stolen by another Tatum entirely — the St. Louis native’s young son Deuce. Asked by the media if he was excited to go to Miami while sitting alongside his father after the game, the younger Tatum shared what it was he most looked forward to doing on arrival in the south Florida metropolis.
Check out the NBA TV clip embedded below snipped from the postgame media availability session to hear what that might be for yourself while you bask in the glow (or the sting) of the Celtics’ Game 7 victory.
