From Moana to real-life lessons, fatherhood has bonded the Boston Celtics

Father’s Day means something to the Boston Celtics.

They’re competing for an NBA championship and their place in Celtics history, but they’re also humans. And in a lot of cases, they are fathers, too.

After getting blown out by 38 points, Jayson Tatum was ready to reset, on and off the court.

“Excited to go back home, celebrate Father’s Day on Sunday, and compete for a championship on Monday,” Tatum said after Game 4. “So, it should be a lot of fun.”

Fatherhood comes with challenges. Real life is far more important than the on-court waves of a basketball game.
