The Boston Celtics also held a moment of silence for the victims before their game against the Toronto Raptors, and Brady, whose apartment is just a few buildings away from the site of the blaze, called into WEEI’s “Dennis & Callahan” on Thursday to give recognition to those he called “the real heroes.”
