On the court, star Boston Celtics Jayson Tatum and Derrick White have found a potent chemistry that has helped their team win a title last season, and put themselves in good position to repeat in the 2025 NBA Playoffs. But they have also honed a razor wit and fun connection on the rare times both of these Boston players take the podium together.

Jayson Tatum is in Boston’s starting lineup Friday night for Game 3 of the Celtics’ series against the Orlando Magic after missing a game with a bone bruise in his right wrist.

Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum revealed the idea he and Derrick White came up with prior to their game against the Charlotte Hornets. The Boston Celtics cruised to a dominant 130–94 win over the Charlotte Hornets on Friday night in a game that had little playoff significance for either side.
