In a hilariously entertaining post-game press conference, Boston Celtics stars Jayson Tatum and Derrick White brought smiles to everyone’s faces after their 120-117 victory over the previously undefeated Cleveland Cavaliers. The duo shared some laughs and even joked about the White House.
During the press conference, Tatum brought up the Celtics’ upcoming trip to the White House to celebrate their championship win. He asked White,
Tatum: “You bring your ring?”
White: shakes head
Tatum: “I’m bringing mine… You too cool to wear it?”
White: “I’ll think about it… I didn’t know that was a thing!”
Tatum: “When else you going to the White House?”
White: “That’s my house.”
Derrick White said he wasn’t bringing his ring to the White House.
