Boston’s Grant Williams explains what happened to get Jayson Tatum ejected against the Toronto Raptors

Boston Celtics reserve forward Grant Williams was interviewed by the media following the team’s preseason 137-134 overtime loss to the Toronto Raptors in Montreal’s Bell Centre this past Friday night. With the loss, the Celtics’ preseason slate of four exhibition tilts comes to a close as the team turns its attention to Tuesday night’s home opener for the 2022-23 NBA season against the Philadelphia 76ers.

In one of the lowlights of the loss to the Raptors, superstar Celtics forward Jayson Tatum was issued two technical fouls in rapid succession and was then ejected from Boston’s final preseason game with just seconds left in the game’s third quarter.

To fill us in on some of the gaps about what exactly was going on in that pivotal sequence, reserve forward Grant Williams gave a breakdown of the events and conversations with referees that led to Tatum being tossed.
