Charles Barkley loves Jayson Tatum’s pregame outfit heading into a pivotal Game 3 on Sunday night.
Tatum was wearing an all-white suit in advance of Game 3 as the Boston Celtics are currently down 2-0 in their best-of-seven series against the Miami Heat.
Charles Barkley got to see it and was fairly impressed by it.
“When you come to work looking like that, Ernie, you’re gonna have a hell of a game,” Barkley said.
Barkley then confirmed to Ernie Johnson that he’s never worn anything like that and can’t.

The Celtics will need a big game from Tatum to avoid going down 3-0 in the Eastern Conference Final. So far, Tatum has scored 64 points in the first two games of the series, though it’s all been for naught.
He’ll look to change that when Game 3 of this series starts at 8:30 p.m. ET. It’ll be televised by TNT.
