Is Jimmy Butler's new St. Louis Browns hat a source of NBA trash talk?

Published Sat, 22 Feb 2025 10:32:28 GMT

BOSTON - There's a little bit of St. Louis heading to the NBA Finals, but maybe not quite in the way most would expect. St. Louis native and Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum just missed out on an opportunity to compete in his second consecutive NBA Finals. The Celtics went down 3-0 to the Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference Final, stormed back to even the series at 3-3, then lost Game 7 at home on Monday night in blowout fashion. Tatum is loyal to St. Louis just about as much as any professional athlete from the area, though it appears he has competition in representing his hometown. Heat star Jimmy Butler, following a Game 7 win and on-court celebrations Monday, sported a St. Louis Browns hat during postgame press conferences.
