The Brooklyn Nets took care of business as they punched their ticket into the NBA playoffs. They defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers in the play in round to advance as the 7th seed. Now, in a playoff rematch, they will face off against the Boston Celtics. In the midst of the matchup between Jayson Tatum and Kevin Durant coming in, an interaction between Durant and Tatum is going viral all over.
While Tatum and the Slim Reaper are rivals on the court, they shared the court together while playing for Team USA. In an iconic Olympics, the USA did not lose out on their status. In a wild ride, they secured the gold medal, beating France to the glory. However, the Nets were quite active as they signed Patty Mills, who was hot through the tournament. This led to a hilarious exchange between Tatum and KD.
