Jayson Tatum of the Boston Celtics continues to enjoy his vacation during the All-Star break by watching a Netflix-exclusive show. He seems to be a huge fan of "The Vince Staples Show" starring Vince Staples, and NBA fans agree with the Celtics superstar.
In a tweet, Tatum shared his thoughts on the brand-new limited comedic series, a satirical take on Staples' life as a rapper and singer. The show had been in the works for years before it premiered on Feb. 15 on Netflix.
"Vince staple show is hilarious," Tatum wrote.
Jayson Tatum and the rest of the NBA are enjoying the All-Star break before the season resumes on Thursday night. The Boston Celtics will resume their season on the road at the United Center against the Chicago Bulls.
Meanwhile, for those who don't know, Vince Staples is a rapper and singer from Long Beach, California. He rose to fame in the early 2010s due to his collaboration with artists like Odd Future, Mac Miller, Teyona Taylor and Fetty Wap.
The 30-year-old artist earned the starring role for his own show along with cast members like Myles Bullockas, Vanessa Bell Calloway, Arturo Castro, Andrea Ellsworth, Bryan Greenberg, Nate Jones and Scott MacArthur.
"When doing something this nuanced, playing straight within a non-traditional comedy, you need real talent, you need these moments to stick out, and we were able to find a diverse array of people to work on the show and they all did great," Staples said about the show's release.
"I think we had great contrast with our characters, and it ended up being a perfect storm of people. It really made my job easy."
