Boston Celtics star, Thomas, to have urgent dental treatment after losing a tooth in play-off match
Boston Celtics star, Isiah Thomas, is looking to undergo urgent dental treatment after losing a tooth during his side’s play-off semi-final game against the Washington Wizards.
Thomas scored 33 points in the game, which the Celtics won 123-111, but not everything went his way. After receiving a ball in the face, Thomas was left without one of his front teeth, and he is now eager to get his smile fixed as quickly as possible. In the past, Thomas admits to engaging in banter with team mates who have been the victim of similar dental mishaps, but now that the shoe is on the other foot, he’s keen to put things right. In interviews, the player said that it feels very odd when he talks, and having never had dental issues in the past, he’s looking forward to having his old smile back as soon as possible.
Thomas’ teammates have already made jokes about the star player’s situation, urging to smile more after the victory, but deep down, admitted Joe Crowder, they hope he gets it fixed in the coming days. Crowder added that the fact Thomas continued to play after the injury is testament to his commitment and his fighting spirit.
