Boston Celtics superstars Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown had no interest in resting after Wednesday's massive win. The Celtics dismantled the league-leading Oklahoma City Thunder, 119-109, at TD Garden. It snapped the Thunder’s red-hot 12-game win streak.

Tatum posted 19 points, 12 rebounds and seven assists. Brown delivered 31 points, eight rebounds and eight assists.

Since returning from his torn Achilles, Tatum is averaging 19.1 points and a career-high 9.2 rebounds across nine games. Brown has been Boston's anchor all season, averaging 28.5 points, 7.0 rebounds and 5.1 assists.

After the game, the two All-Stars made their way to watch France and Brazil's pre-World Cup friendly.

The Celtics took their winning energy straight to Foxborough. Tatum and Brown made their way to Gillette Stadium, home of the New England Patriots. It was one of the biggest soccer friendlies on U.S. soil this year.

Before kickoff, the duo was spotted interacting with the crowd, including Patriots owner Robert Kraft.

The NBA on ESPN shared the clip on Instagram, drawing plenty of reactions from commenters.

"Celtics are in the building ☘️☘️☘️," one fan wrote.

"THE MVP IN THE BUILDING," added another.

Another chimed in with: "Champs!!"

“Ofc Jaylen Brown wears a Pelé shirt," one commenter noticed.

"Can't wait for Boston vs OKC in June!" a user said.

Another quipped: "2 free throws coming for Jaylen Brown."

Tatum also greeted France captain Kylian Mbappé and Brazil captain Casemiro pitchside. He then flipped the coin before kickoff. Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla also attended alongside other members of the team.

With Kylian Mbappé propelling his side, France claimed a 2-1 victory over Brazil.

Boston's sports culture runs deep, built on a tradition of championship franchises supporting each other. For Tatum and Brown, Wednesday was just another reminder of what it means to represent one of the world's most successful sports cities.
