Jayson Tatum, the Boston Celtics’ reserved NBA player, surprised everyone with his knack for humor during a recent chat with comedian Kevin Hart.
In a lighthearted moment, Tatum couldn’t resist teasing Hart about his petite stature. To make amends, he presented Hart with a special gift: a Celtics jersey.
The twist?
It turned out to be his own young son’s jersey, clearly tailored for a child. Surprisingly, Hart managed to squeeze into it comfortably and, albeit reluctantly, conceded that it suited him rather well.
Hart is no stranger to the NBA scene and counts himself among the league’s celebrity enthusiasts. He frequently attends games, cultivating close relationships with some of the sport’s biggest stars.
Despite his compact stature, he remains a fixture at many games, typically found courtside, mere feet from the on-court action.
The video captured a rare and delightful moment, offering a glimpse of Tatum’s off-court personality. Known for his unwavering focus on the game, he seldom finds time to unwind or share thoughts on topics beyond basketball.
This is in part because he has emerged as a central leader for the Celtics over the past few seasons.
