Boston Celtics guard Payton Pritchard will be in attendance for Harwich's game versus Orleans next Tuesday, July 15, at Whitehouse Field.

Pritchard, the 2024-25 NBA Sixth Man of the Year, will throw out the first pitch and be available to take photos with fans during the game.

Married to a Harwich-native, Pritchard got married last year at the Wychmere Beach Club. His teammate, Blake Griffin, officiated the ceremony.

Drafted in 2020, Pritchard has spent five seasons with the Celtics. He won the NBA title with the team in 2024. The Oregon-native averaged 14.1 points per game this past season. Before the NBA, he spent four years at the University of Oregon where he was named a Consensus First-Team All-American in 2020.

Game begins at 6:30 p.m.
