Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum channeled superstardom with his wardrobe ahead of Game 2 of the NBA Finals.
The 24-year-old wore a black jacket which featured artwork of Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan after winning their championships. Jordan’s iconic cigar photo was taken after winning his fourth championship with the Chicago Bulls in the 1996 NBA Finals.
In five playoff series with the Celtics, Tatum is still in search of the first championship of his career.
Tatum became the new Jordan Brand Athlete in the summer of 2019 and wore Air Jordan 36 throughout the 2021-22 season and into the playoffs. He wore snakeskin-covered Air Jordan 36 Lows for pre-game shots ahead of Monday’s game.
Last week, the Celtics beat the Golden State Warriors 120-108 in Game 1. The Warriors evened the series at one after beating the Celtics 107-88 in Game 2.
