Celtics’ Jaysom Tatum Calls Out Cowboys’ Micah Parsons To His Face For Being Bandwagon Fan (VIDEO)
Boston Celtics’ superstar Jayson Tatum obviously did his homework on Micah Parsons ahead of Wednesday’s game against the Miami Heat.
The Cowboys’ star edge rusher attended Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals between the Celtics and Heat at TD Garden on Wednesday. A pre-game video of Parsons and Tatum acknowledging one another on the court went viral, and there was a humorous twist in it.
Parsons shook hands with Tatum and hugged him, offering him the best of luck for the evening. An observant and wise Tatum told Parsons, “Last time I seen you, you had a Philly jersey.”
Tatum proceeded to ask Parsons who he was rooting for, and the Dallas superstar insisted that he was cheering for Boston.
