[Saba Sports News] Payton Pritchard pulled out all the stops for his wedding over the weekend.
The Boston Celtics guard married his girlfriend, Emma MacDonald, on Sunday in Cape Cod, Mass. The ceremony featured a special officiant—none other than former NBA star Blake Griffin.
Celtics forward Jaylen Brown shared a video on Instagram showing Griffin, a six-time NBA All-Star, officiating the wedding. Griffin, who played with Pritchard on the Celtics during the 2022-23 season, was heavily recruited by the team to return for the 2023-24 season, which ended with Boston winning the NBA title. However, Griffin declined and later announced his retirement from the NBA.
Now 35, Griffin has moved on to new adventures. Meanwhile, 26-year-old Pritchard is celebrating a big 2024, having earned his first championship ring and making some memorable contributions along the way.
