WATCH: Is Boston Celtics star forward Jayson Tatum back?
Towards the end of the 2020-21 NBA season, it looked as if Boston Celtics All-Star forward Jayson Tatum was about to explode into superstardom, his numbers seeming to climb as the season wore on. Then, as it seems to be his routine, he started the subsequent season slowly. And while it has happened before, the start of the 2021-22 season for the St. Louis native was even slower than usual, with Tatum having serious problems putting the biscuit in the basket at an efficient rate for the Celtics.
Plenty of high-profile players also had a rough start with the rule changes and the new ball being factors as well, but over the last few tilts Boston has played, it’s looked like the Duke product’s game has returned to form.
Is Tatum back, or is this just a positive blip in the right direction? Coming games will of course tell, but it was a topic of discussion on a recent episode of the CLNS Media podcast “The Garden Report”.
