Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum is young to begin with. But Tatum looked like a kid on Christmas when he saw his NBA All-Star gear for the first time Sunday in Chicago.
Tatum clearly was excited to check out his jersey, wearing the No. 2 in honor of Gianna Bryant, and the warm ups with his name on the back.
“This is tough,” Tatum said, in a video posted by the league. “Now it’s real. The warm up just got me.”
