Jayson Tatum is seemingly having fun on his summer break as the NBA star was snapped alongside rising rapper S*xyy Red.

With the new season scheduled to begin on October 24, the Boston Celtics ace has been enjoying his off-season after a heart-breaking end to his side’s playoff run as they lost a Game 7 to the Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference Finals.

At just 25 years old, the small forward has his best years of basketball ahead of him and with two months to go until he enters his seventh year in the league, Tatum was filmed at an event as he posed alongside another St Louis icon in S*xyy Red.

The rapper garnered viral attention this year thanks to her successful mixtape and she was seen rubbing shoulders with Tatum before posting a snap of them on her Instagram page with the caption: “St. Louis sht man”.

The post has since achieved over 240,000 likes as Red, whose real name is Janae Nierah Wherry, posed for the snap with massive amounts of cash in both her hands.

Fans certainly had a few things to say about the meeting of the Missouri icons as one X user decided to make light of Tatum not yet winning an NBA title as they wrote: “Did she give him a ring Yet because he ain’t getting one in the NBA.”

Another user claimed that the NBA star may have been in a rush to get home to his son as they commented: “Tatum wants to go home and hangout with Deuce so bad” while a third was surprised by the pair meeting by writing: “A linkup I wouldn’t have expected if I’m being honest.”

While Tatum looks set for a bumper new contract in 2025 which is when his $195million (£153million) deal runs out, his team-mate Jaylen Brown was the recipient of the biggest contract in NBA history this season, worth $304m (£239m).

The 26-year-old admitted the importance of helping your community as an athlete as he promised to help areas similar to where he grew up.

“I think that being an athlete, you have a lot of influence in your community and if you use it responsibly you can make the world a better place,” he said on CBS Mornings.

“Communities need people to represent them,” he said. “They feel [excluded], so me being from those communities, just because I escaped those barriers that allowed me to make it to the NBA doesn’t mean I’m going to forget about the groups I came from.”
