Payton Pritchard, the Boston Celtics guard, had a memorable weekend as he married his longtime girlfriend, Emma MacDonald.
The wedding, which took place in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, featured a special touch that added a unique flair to the celebration: the officiant was none other than Blake Griffin, a six-time NBA All-Star.
Griffin, who played alongside Pritchard during the 2022-23 season with the Celtics, was called upon to officiate the ceremony. This connection between the two players added a personal element to the event, as Griffin and Pritchard shared a season together on the Celtics, building a bond that led to this special moment.
Jaylen Brown, another Celtics star, shared a video on Instagram showing Griffin performing his officiating duties, adding to the buzz surrounding the wedding. Despite the Celtics’ efforts to bring Griffin back for another season, he decided to retire, leaving the NBA after a remarkable career.
Pritchard, meanwhile, has had an incredible year, winning his first NBA championship and now celebrating his marriage in grand style.
