It’s been more than a year since the Boston Celtics last played a game in front of fans at TD Garden. That all changed Monday evening as the team tipped off in front of a small — 12 percent capacity — but enthusiastic crowd.
Jason Tatum took to Twitter a day early to express his excitement over playing in front of the fans.
I can’t wait to get back in the garden I miss the hell out of ours fans. @celtics fans see y’all Monday! Missed y’all🥺☘️
