Boston Celtics All-NBA forward Jayson Tatum has recently made headlines for his involvement in the greater Boston community. From surprise visits to local children’s hospitals to showing up at a local high school, Tatum is embracing his role as a leader and role model in the Boston community. The St. Louis native’s impact on his new home is just one small part of how he is becoming the face of Boston sports.
His on-court successes of course do not hurt, but the lack of wins at the highest of levels are still an area some critics point to when debating if he is indeed THE face of Boston sports. Tatum’s recognition of his role in the Boston community is meaningful.
People from different backgrounds and communities look up to him, and his actions have a positive impact on their lives.
