A 12-year-old boy with a heart condition had his dream come true when he FaceTimed with Boston Celtics player Jayson Tatum.

Footage released by Make-A-Wish on October 30 shows the heartwarming call in which young Andrew from South Florida can be seen beaming while talking to the star.

The pair previously met at a multi-wish event in New York to launch the organization’s sports partnership with Fanatics. The call was arranged as a one-year check-in.

The Make-A-Wish organization announced a “first-of-its-kind partnership” with Fanatics, becoming their official sports partner in October 2023, according to their website.

“Long time no see,” Tatum says to Andrew, who is his “biggest fan,” according to Make-A-Wish.
