Celtics alum Grant Williams opens up on the beef with Deuce Tatum
Even though he is no longer a member of the Boston Celtics, the ties Dallas Mavericks forward Grant Williams forged with the team that drafted him endure, as does a mostly one-sided beef between Williams and the biggest star in the Celtics locker room, Deuce Tatum.
The Tennessee alum recently opened up about that feud in an interview with “The Hoop Chat’s” Emily Austin. “Me and Deuce don’t have beef,” explained Williams. “That’s my guy.” Noting that the beef emanated from the younger Tatum, the Charlotte native explained that “it’s one of those … love-hate” things given he’ll always be there for him.
Austin and Williams got into what it’s been like watching Deuce grow up over the three years the now-Mavs swingman has been in the league; “It’s funny, he’s getting older now, he’s starting to talk.”
