Jayson Tatum and the Boston Celtics will be hoping that they can steal at least one game off the Miami Heat and not be swept in the Eastern Conference Finals.
Tatum came into Game 4 in Miami wearing a shirt by the fashion brand ‘Nahmas’. Unfortunately for Tatum, Charles Barkley thought the shirt read ‘Bahamas’. which led to the Inside the NBA crew laughing at Tatum’s expense.
“Does that say the Bahamas?”

Through the first three games of this series, Tatum has averaged 26.0 points, 10.0 rebounds, and 3.7 assists. While the numbers look good on paper, Tatum has been playing disjointed basketball and was detrimental to the Celtics when they lost Game 3. It’ll be interesting to see if he can pull off a big game to keep Boston’s title hopes alive.
Can Boston Make The First-Ever 3-0 Comeback?
The first step in a 3-0 comeback is to make the series score 3-1 first by winning Game 4. The Celtics will be focusing on that but are currently trailing by 6 points in a 23-29 game at the end of the first quarter. Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Browm have 5 points each and lead the C’s in scoring alongside Derrick White, who also has 5 points.
Jimmy Butler will hope to break any hopes or optimism that players in the Celtics locker room have for this game. He has 9 points in the first quarter and has set the tone for his team to take this early lead. Now, it is just a question of extending this lead as the game goes on.
The Denver Nuggets have qualified for the NBA Finals and will play the winner of this series starting June 1.
