It was a huge night for former Michigan State basketball star Xavier Tillman, who had social media buzzing with his huge performance off the bench in the NBA Finals, playing lockdown defense and even hitting a dagger three to help put the Boston Celtics up 3-0 on the Dallas Mavericks.
After the game, Tillman talked about his moment and what it meant to see his team going crazy supporting him on the sidelines, which you can watch below:
"To hear the bench going crazy on our end… it was pretty awesome."
