Next Generation Celtics: Jayson Tatum’s Son Takes The Arena Center Stage

Fans, like myself, are accustomed to peeking into those iconic green and yellow NBA tunnel gates to catch a glimpse of Deuce decked out in his legit and flyer-than-fly basketball gear. However, like most things on the surface, there is so much more to this basketball enthusiast than just a mere spectator. Tatum notes Deuce being a huge Spider-Man fan as well as his adherence to a routine that despite his lack of height and athletic prowess, he spends his time throwing basketballs not for the game but for fun. Not only is Deuce his father’s son when it comes to experiencing the world, but he mirrors his dad’s fashion-consciousness, so he chooses carefully the clothes for his game day just like his stylish dad. “After that his favorite thing to look at himself in the mirror saying, ‘Daddy, Look,’ and then he repeated, ‘I’m fresh-fresh,’” Tatum admits with a grin of paternality.

At age 26, an NBA seasoned veteran since 2017, Sager has been running the floor while simultaneously handing down the hoops wisdom nuggets to his kid. Through his involvement in Coach, Tatum provides a real aspect to his ambassadorship and by saying the words “Courage to be Real” he’s reminding about the importance of staying rooted, and the he reminds us that in this very role there are many ways that you could end up lost. I have this feeling that no matter what you go through, you always need to be yourself, follow your roots, and just be organic.

Duce’s love for basketball blossoms, and Tatum retains vigilance in the building of his son in all aspects, academics included. Impressively, Tatum contributes to Deuce’s decision-making process, and this leads the youth to shape his own destiny, driven by talent and power of salvation. From moment to moment, from jiba-jabi to every cheer, from every outfit to the way to his own stardom, Dee dedicates to the memory of his father while firmly going ahead.
