NBA Playoffs: Celtics star Terry Rozier reveals reason behind Drew Bledsoe jersey
BOSTON CELTICS star Terry Rozier has revealed why he wore a Drew Bledsoe t-shirt before the game against the Philadelphia 76ers.

Rozier and Eric Bledsoe had beef during Celtics’ playoff win against the Milwaukee Bucks.
After Game 1, Rozier inadvertently referred to the Bucks’ point guard Bledsoe as “Drew”, mixing him up with the former New England Patriots quarterback.
Bledsoe responded in Game 2 by giving his thoughts on Rozier, but he was dismissive, as he said: “Who? I don’t even know the f*** he is!”
Before Celtics’ clash with 76ers, Rozier was rather brave by wearing a Bledsoe jersey, and Drew himself approved on Twitter.

Even though we haven’t talked, I think he knows who I am and I know who he is
And while the choice of outfit might have been a sly dig at Eric, Rozier didn’t seem too concerned.
“I got love for my man Drew Bledsoe,” he said after the game.
“Even though we haven’t talked, I think he knows who I am and I know who he is.
“That’s all that matters.”
Celtics clinched a 117-101 win over the 76ers in the early hours of this morning to take a 1-0 lead in the Eastern Conference semi-finals.
Rozier was on fire, scoring 29 points, eight rebounds and making six assists.
