Jay-Z may be a Brooklyn native, but he was seen showin’ love to the Boston Celtics after their wild comeback win over the Warriors — dapping up Jayson Tatum after the game.
If you missed Game 1 of the NBA Finals on Thursday, the Celtics were down 12 points by the end of the 3rd quarter against Golden State … but Tatum and the C’s went off in the 4th and outscored the Warriors 40-16 — pulling off an upset win, 120-108.
The Celtics did it all right on the Warriors’ homecourt — and hip-hop legend Jay-Z was front and center to watch the epic win at the Chase Center.
Hov had to show the Celts some love for their stunning performance … and dapped up Tatum — the Eastern Conference Finals MVP — right on the court.
The cool part about the exchange? Jay-Z’s track “On To The Next One,” featuring Swizz Beats, was playing on the arena’s speakers.

Shawn Carter wasn’t the only celeb in the crowd who witnessed Celtics upturn … San Francisco Giants legend Barry Bonds was also in attendance, as was legendary director Spike Lee.
Lee — who’s a diehard New York Knicks fan — was seen on camera before the game giving love to Warriors star Draymond Green and yelling, “Let’s go, baby! Let’s go!”
