Moments after the final buzzer sounded in Staples Center on Sunday afternoon, Lakers star LeBron James met Celtics forward Jayson Tatum near half court for what was a relatively lengthy embrace. While the exact conversation was of course muffled, it’s not hard to guess at least some of what was said. Later that day, the 16-time All-Star made clear what he thought of the Celtics’ first-time All-Star.
“That boi to the left of me is an ABSOLUTE PROBLEM,” James wrote in an Instagram post, sharing a picture of the two next to each other at the scorer’s table.
