After Jayson Tatum scored 16 points in the fourth quarter of a must-win Game 6 on the road in Philadelphia, he told ESPN’s Cassidy Hubarth, “I’m humbly one of the best basketball players in the world.”
He had shaken off a 1-of-14 start and hit four three-pointers in the final four minutes to bury Philadelphia on their home court.
Then, three days later, he not only talked the talk, but walked the walk in a 51-point masterclass of a Game 7 to eliminate the 76ers in the second round.
It was the most points in a Game 7 ever in the NBA and our friends at BreakingT have commemorated that record-breaking feat with a new t-shirt.
