Star Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum is headed to the 2024 NBA Finals, and looks poised to finally hang Banner 18. But before he was gearing up for that biggest of stages, the St. Louis native was putting in work on a new Gatorade spot set to run just ahead of what could be a transformational moment in his NBA career.
The folks behind Tatum’s new spot shared a behind-the-scenes clip with us here at the Celtics Wire so you can catch a glimpse of what went into the making of Tatum’s new Gatorade spot due out today and linked below.
He appears in it alongside other global sports icons like WNBA star rookie like Caitlin Clark, and Olympic gold medalist Sydney McLaughlin-Levron while being narrated by His Airness, Michael Jordan.
To see Tatum’s behind-the-scenes clip, check out the video embedded above, and to see the commercial in full (Taco Jay appears about halfway through), take a look at the clip embedded below.
