NEW YORK — The Celtics visited Jayson Tatum on Thursday in New York City ahead of their Game 6 matchup against the New York Knicks.
Tatum underwent surgery to repair a ruptured Achilles on Tuesday in New York after suffering the injury in Monday night’s Game 4. So, he was still at the team hotel when the Celtics arrived.
“It was really good seeing him,” Pritchard said. “Obviously he’s out of surgery. It seemed like he was in really good spirits. He’s probably about to be stir crazy for a while now, but it’s just good when you see one of your brothers and teammates go through a situation like that, you just want to be there to comfort anything he needs.
