The Boston Celtics were getting blown out at home by the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night, so the team turned to other options to provide some entertainment. They found that with a fan in the crowd who happened to look and dress just like Tupac Shakur.
The fan had a bandana tied across his forehead like the late rapper, so the Celtics’ in-game entertainment crew played “California Love” to honor the man.
