Jayson Tatum: Hiding girlfriend’s pregnancy from the NBA, Celtics

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ต.ค. 2022
- Three-time NBA All-Star Jayson Tatum looks back on surprising pregnancy news from his high school girlfriend, shortly before he entered into the NBA Draft. Jayson remembers fearfully hiding the news, as he believed it might impact his draft stock. Plus, he shares the stories of first telling his then-Boston Celtics coach Brad Stevens the news, and calling his mom Brandy at 3 a.m. to let her in on the secret. Jayson says the birth of his son Deuce quickly shifted his perspective and he immediately decided “nothing else matters” beyond caring for his child.

Change title to “Jayson Tatum: Embracing fatherhood” much more respectful
Fr real
@@reginaldsmith2024 for what every one in the nba get disrespected no one is safe in the nba I’m sorry
@@reginaldsmith2024 “for real real”
Agreed
Facts
I can relate to Tatum here. Being a younger parent it’s terrifying to tell people but the second they’re born they are all that matters!
I hope you have life insurance my friend
im confused by jayson's predicament though bc it's not like we expect athletes to be beacons of morality and family values 🤔
i shouldn't have trusted the title which misrepresents what he said.
A 19 year old is going to be afraid. That's natural. He rose to the challenges of being a young dad. Looks like he could teach a few of the older dads some lessons
Different scenario
if money isnt an issue, a lot of worries and problems do go away. he clearly had the money and good supportive system to raise deuce.
awful title. he was vulnerable with y'all, then y'all take it fully out of context in a way that frames him negatively & makes it seem like that's still his viewpoint
edit: well at least they made it a little better
I get the feeling Jayson don’t give a f 😊
@@ThePartarar or, maybe he’s watching everything Graham and Co. do following the interview, to learn how his words are being twisted to suit someone else’s narrative. If I had as much money as he does, that’s what I’d be doing in this situation. I bet his next interview is much more locked down.
@@tim.noonan maybe, but its seems like he just wanted to share his experiences, regardless of how people wanna skew them. Being scared about having a kid, crying in class, and when Kobe died… just a real dude.
What was the title before?
@@vineethgodavarti1252 something about him not caring about Duece
He was very lucky to have such a great ma himself. I feel for his son's mother. She was also young and probably terrified. Fair play to them all. He's a lovely boy, Deuce. The other video about his own father is pretty gut-wrenching. Parenting is so hit and miss. It's also really hard raising a child when you are poor. I hope he donates to the food bank.
yea it doesnt hurt to have an nba player get you pregnant if youre gonna get pregnant
@@davidl8759 you’re weird
I think Jason was very grounded by his up bringing, obviously you can tell by his mom talking about who they were as a son and mom together. I can’t imagine it not being a big help to him that his own mother was 19 when she had him, and he’s showing what a good father is bottom line. I really enjoy watching the games and watching Jason but I also look for a deuce At the game and see the joy in him as a child and the joy he gives his dad, it’s all good
I understand Tatum for his decision gotta respect it. Much love Celtics fan ☘️🍀
On December 6th, 2017, Deuce Tatum was born..... that's same day, Jayson Tatum put up a double-double and got a W vs Dallas
title crazy
Tatum Wanting Easier Love From His Pops.. You Can Tell Duece Is His GREATEST Blessing ..Bigger Than Basketball ‼️🖤🖤
wild thinking of having a child a 19 years old. So young and so much growing up to do fast. Seems like he's doing great as a dad
This is great 👌👍 how he handled the problem. And how it made him Mature. He is a great example ☺️ to be a Father 😊 and handles his business 🙂 as a Basketball Player. He will be MVP this year. I am looking forward as the season progresses to see him lead his team to a 18th title. I am very optimistic about this despite the Golden State 🎯 game 🎯
Media makes titles sound Awful.. you see this 💩
This interview is awesome. I admire this young brother becaUs he seems so mature for his age. Ans now I know why. To have such a grounded mom and a good dad, he’ll be ok. So many young brothers do not have discipline but Jason definitely does. Great interview.
He didn't even plan to miss a game..
Deuce is the cutest baby！
Expecting a little girl neck week this helped me🙏🏼
i hope things go well for you brother
Nah the bank account is still different 🤔
This title is out of context and distasteful
0:09 damn 💀💀
Boston adores Deuce!☘️❤️
awesome
I love that Jason shared his story. A lot of young men should listen to his story can learn a lot from this and learning the importance of being a young parent and wanting to be his best for Duece is beautiful!! We should take bringing another life into this world as a privilege and to give it our best even if we didn’t have it. Nothing should mean more to you but your children but a lot of young parents don’t see it that way cause a lot of them are still in a selfish stage and that’s why I try educating them to slow down and don’t rush cause having a child takes a lot of sacrifice and if your not finically ready it can make it even more difficult. Thank you Jason for sharing your story!
Graham has a long history of being a good dude. Let's give him the benefit of the doubt.
super glad celtics pick this man.
Can anyone tell me whats tatums t shirt brand? Its dope
Carhart
Why did the guy stop Jayson. I want to know Brad's reaction!!
It’s weird hearing Tatums mom speak after seeing her and Duece at literally every Celtics home game
The title is insensitive
How? I’m curious
how? it’s true
Shut up, crybaby.
I laughed when I saw this comment and thought “how soft is this world now”
@@LJ-hn6oz We live in a world filled with 5 year olds.
Love JT
Dope
Insulting title
Y’all are on about the title but it’s true?
He may not be afraid he might want privacy
Can you change the title it's the truth but it's not nice
Jt kept his child a secret from the Celtic's
the world aint nice snowflake
How does that sound its the truth and can help the next young baller you crybabies kill me
How? What's offensive about it?
The truth isn't always nice. Grow up.
Money bag is secured!
Having a child is just a blessing from GOD man. He deserves his praise 🙌🏾
W father W player
Title is terrible man.
His Mom 💗🥹
Nice title
Jayson your father not only liked you ..he loved you. As adults we have to remember that we do not know our parents 'back story '. Parents never really tell their children every thing about their upbringing. Somethings are better left unsaid. Sometimes parents mimick what was shown to them maybe your father only knew though love as a way of saying 'I love you'. That doesn't mean it was right it just means that's what he was taught. I am sure you father showed love towards you as best as he could. Never forget that. Always strive to be the change you want to see in the world. Keep this in mind..no matter how much of your upbringing you share with your children you will never tell them everything because some memories people mentally block out for one reason or another. I will tell you something that a wise person told me. 'Hold on to the good memories, and let the bad ones go". In time you will see that having inner peace is worth more than you could have ever imagined. While you will never be perfect you will always be a work in progress as a child of God. Your friend in Christ Jesus.
makes sense for a christian to rationalize daddy issues. bet the priests have the same advice for bad memories
@@MrNonsense101 lol you really took the time to comment this nonsense
Just wondering how the girl he got pregnant was feeling too!
Happy, she secured the bag
She lives in Boston, owns her own hair salon, and is around deuce regularly! They’re both amazing parents
Phew, poking that hole in that condom really worked 😅 mission complete 🫡
@@katiemcdermott300 they better be…. Having money is the cheat code for raising a child 🤔
hi
change the title bruh that shit insensitive asf
To all young kids out there who dream of playing in the NBA, please read this…So, according to a new NBA test study/experiment, where they timed and measured movements, timing, speed, height, weight, and all offensive and defensive tangible “skill sets” of current D1, D2, g league, and nba players, he was among the average. Instead, it is his situational IQ, awareness, and mentality that separated him from the average and made him elite. Being 6’7” and 220lbs with handles and range doesn’t make you special, and if you do not understand the power of this study then you need to stay in school and/or find a mentor who does.
how are they measuring mentality in a research setting?
Why would teams care if he had a kid. Doesnt make sense
everyone would think that he wouldn't be focused on the game.. it's a scary thought when you're bound to get drafted and then they decide not to
he was young, young people get freaked out about everything. realistically speaking, celtics couldn't give two shits if he had a kid, as long as he can ball.
@@chiapet101 nah a lot of these guys have kids in college or younger, it's not out of the ordinary. Nba doesnt care
@@brianjuice exactly, he def was irrational thinking they wld care abt tht
@@goldbrick2563 you missed the point… yes it’s common but the issue is focus. Potential Baby mama drama could be a distraction for an elite athlete.
change the title clown!!
Ya graham wtf
But did the gf secretly get off birth control to cash in before he upgraded is the real question 🤔
Crazy how ass forget about jt 😕
Wow🥺🤍
yooooooooo
Money 💰 is a bitch
Title screams “this N* right here didn’t want the ppl he work with to know he had unprotected sex… oh yeah he plays for the Celtics” oooo spicy
😂😂😂
Dallas mavericks been kick that ass
This is stupid. If you weren't ready to be parents, whether you rich or not, don't risk it!
"Don't risk it" - he said it was the best thing in his life. Their love is special, this is a wonderful father/son relationship.
He said it himself.." he was selfish in the beginning"
Simple logic, If you f around, you will find out! Poor kid gonna find out in the future that his dad didn't want him at first that his career was more important than him, even though, yes he later realized how great having a kid is. But if you don't want to use the plastic wrap, you'd better be ready for the consequences!
Wtf? People make mistakes. I can tell you that deuce is not a mistake. He is the best thing that happened to Tatum. What if she was on birth control and it failed? Or the condom broke? She was his long time girl friend. People have sex. Mistakes happen. Protection is never 100%. Relax. You gonna start promoting abstinence in your comments now or have you just never been laid?
@@katiemcdermott300 so basically you are agreeing with me then.
Goofball
Boston Celtics isn't winning a championship with Duece in the locker room. Get him a babysitter so you can focus on the games!
Did you ever see how GSW works 😅
Shut up
He doesn’t need to tell anyone weather his wife is pregnant or not! It’s his private life. People don’t need to know everything!
It's kind of funny because of how stupid it is. Dude should've kept that to himself tho. The league don't give a shit about kids. As long as you can score you have a job.
Facts but maybe he didn't know at a time
They’re going to take into consideration your priorities when you have a new born child. They both knew the risks and benefits lol.
