It’s official.
Danny Ainge confirmed on 98.5 The Sports Hub’s Toucher and Rich Thursday morning that the Celtics will air their Isaiah Thomas tribute video on Feb. 11 — the same day as Paul Pierce’s jersey retirement ceremony.
The team initially planned to run the video during the Cavaliers game on Jan. 3, but held off at Thomas’s request. Thomas told reporters before Wednesday’s game that he wanted to save the honor for a night when his family could be at the Garden.
“I wanted my family to experience the love and appreciation this city and this organization was going to give me on that night,” he said.
