After trouncing the Knicks, Celtics stars Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown reflected on what it means to be NBA champions.

While some among the NBA media sphere may not be the greatest fans of player rankings, for better or worse, they have become an unavoidable part of league fandom and its media cycles.

Ahead of the game, Brown made it to the tunnel looking dashing with an all-black base, wearing a plain black tee paired with dark slim-fit trousers and loafers. Renowned for his impressive pregame outfits, the Celtics shooting guard also made a statement with a green and black custom championship jacket representing his team.
