If you’ve been keeping up with All-Star festivities this weekend, you’ve noticed that there’s just a different vibe with the NBA celebrating their 75th anniversary in Cleveland. With many of the legends in attendance, you can’t help but feel your place in history.
For the 23-year-old Jayson Tatum, his fifth trip to All-Star weekend has been all about looking back, appreciating the moment, and looking forward. Meeting with the media on Saturday, Tatum talked about idolizing the late great Kobe Bryant and always planning on repping at the mid-season classic.
“I felt like if I didn’t make All-Star my third year, I would have felt like a failure,” Tatum said.
