The former basketball player is only in his first season as the head coach of the
Boston Celtics, and he’s already taking the
Jason Tatum-led squad to the promised land against the stacked
Golden State Warriors, a series he’s confident about taking on.
“We’ve played Golden State well this year. We blasted them at their place, had a tough loss at our place early in the season,” he told
Yahoo Sports. “And so it’s a new series. We know who we are and the things we do well, so we’re confident in that.”
But what many people didn’t realize is that he’s been in a relationship with
Nia Long for over a decade, and she showed out for her husband after he clinched a spot in the 2022 NBA Finals.
She celebrated the Game 7 victory against the
Miami Heat by posting a video to her Twitter of her dancing and yelling in excitement with a caption that read “Yes!!!”
Long is, of course, a well-accomplished actress and held iconic roles in works like
Boyz N the Hood,
Love Jones,
The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, and
Soul Food. She’s long been the crush of many over the past three decades, so we dug through her Instagram for some of our favorite photos below.
