George Hill NBA playoffs 2018

Many players have pregame rituals. It’s just that George Hill’s pregame superstition is better than most.

Hill says he ate Chipotle barbacoa before Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals in Cleveland, which the team won to tie the series. He says he also ate Chipotle before the team’s other two home games in the series. They won all three games, leading Hill to joke after Game 6 that he needs to find a Chipotle in Boston before the decisive Game 7 on Sunday.
