I told him (Okamoto) two days ago, after Saturday, me and you, we enemies. Now we're teammates, but after Saturday, we are enemies. He's (Okamoto) been trying to teach me a little bit of Japanese, but that's tough man. He knows more Spanish than whatever he thinks he knows ... Every time he talked to me, it's in Spanish so I'm glad that he can speak a little Spanish.

Tatum, who attended Duke prior to being drafted by the Celtics in 2017, was announced on Tuesday as the school's first ever "Chief Basketball Officer," a newly created role that the Celtics star is volunteering for. Per the Duke announcement, Tatum's duties as CBO will be (among other things) to help the school foster development and team building, mentor current players, "join periodic virtual sessions" to provide input, and to share feedback.

(Dubois) likes to cook, but he's trying to get me out of there, so he's trying to teach me to learn to cook. Last night he brought some food home from here for him and (his wife) Maddie, and I actually had to go to the grocery store last night and cook for myself. So that was a fun scene. (I made) ground turkey, peppers, and rice. Simple, threw some garlic on it and salt, pepper, and put it on a plate and ate it.
