Celtics news: Jayson Tatum, Paul George link up for golf outing

Jayson Tatum is preparing for the Boston Celtics' training camp by enjoying some downtime with former teammates Paul George and Malcolm Brogdon. Photos and videos from their golf outing went viral on social media, showcasing the three NBA veterans enjoying their break before the 2026-27 season begins. The Celtics' social media account shared the image on X, formerly known as Twitter, with the caption, "Squad goes golfing ⛳️."

Brogdon had a stint with Boston during the 2022-23 season, winning the Sixth Man of the Year award. He subsequently moved around the league before joining the Philadelphia 76ers. Paul George, on the other hand, has been a long-time friend of Tatum's, having worked out together and shown respect for each other's games despite competing against each other in the playoffs.

The offseason has also seen changes in the relationship between the Celtics and 76ers following the addition of Jaylen Brown to Philadelphia's roster. For Tatum, the golf outing represents the conclusion of a busy summer where the Celtics underwent significant roster changes, making him the team's focal point as they gear up for the upcoming season.
