Terry Rozier turned heads with his 29-point outburst during a Game 1 victory over the Sixers on Monday, but it was his choice of pre- and post-game attire that caught the eye of a Patriots Hall of Famer.
Rozier strolled into TD Garden wearing a throwback No. 11 Drew Bledsoe Patriots jersey, and he left in the same thing, much to the delight of the former QB.
"This jersey ALWAYS loved the long ball," Bledsoe tweeted after Rozier sank 7-of-9 3-pointers in the 117-101 victory.

— Drew Bledsoe (@DrewBledsoe) May 1, 2018Rozier sported the Bledsoe jersey as a wink to his opening round controversy vs. Milwaukee guard Eric Bledsoe, whom he mistakenly referred to as Drew during a postgame press conference, which led to a battle of words, and wills, during that series.
More than 10 years after throwing his final pass in the NFL, Bledsoe is clearly loving it.
And then lit it up! Nice work @T_Rozzay3 https://t.co/1YTCTfpH9L
