Before the impressive 15-0 home win rally, as the players went through their pregame warmups, all eyes were drawn to Jayson Tatum. The 21-year-old star wasn't just wearing any usual sneakers tonight though. On his feet were a pair of the new Air Jordan 4 Retro, with a mashup of classic colorways with an $800 price tag to match.
