    Celtics' Jayson Tatum: Double-doubles in loss

    Jayson Tatum closed with 13 points (6-23 FG, 0-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds and 11 assists across 38 minutes during Tuesday's 121-113 loss to the Pistons.Tatum simply couldn't get anything going from the floor, en route to just 13 points, including 0-of-7 from the perimeter. If we're being honest, this could be one of his worst shooting performances of the season, a reassuring fact for fantasy managers. With that said, Tatum certainly had his fingerprints all over the game, handing out a game-high 11 assists. It appeared as though his playmaking was by design, an interesting wrinkle, should it be an ongoing theme.

    Celtics' Jayson Tatum: Expected to suit up Tuesday

    Jayson Tatum (rest) is expected to play in Tuesday's opener against the Pistons.Tatum didn't play in the 125-120 preseason overtime win over the 76ers on Friday. However, since he sat out that contest to rest, he is in line to play Tuesday in Detroit. The six-time All-Star appeared in 16 regular-season games in 2025-26 after working his way back from an Achilles injury, averaging 21.8 points, 10.0 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 1.4 steals across 32.6 minutes per contest. With Jaylen Brown now in Philadelphia, Tatum is the undisputed top offensive option for the Boston Celtics, and assuming he stays healthy, he should be considered an MVP candidate entering the 2026-27 campaign.

    Celtics' Jayson Tatum: Clean bill of health

    Zack Cox of the Boston Herald believes Jayson Tatum (knee) should be close to 100 percent this season.Tatum is healthy ahead of training camp, and the hope is that he'll be able to revert back to form before his 2025 Achilles injury. The superstar forward is Boston's definitive top scoring option, now that Jaylen Brown is with the 76ers, and Tatum will be looking for improved efficiency after shooting a career-low 41.1 percent from the field and 32.9 percent from deep last regular season.

    Celtics' Jayson Tatum: Top dog for Boston

    Jayson Tatum (knee) should once again serve as the unquestioned centerpiece of Boston's offense after the Boston Celtics traded Jaylen Brown for Paul George and other assets, John Schuhmann of NBA.com reports.While George remains an effective two-way wing, he's unlikely to command the same offensive workload as Brown at this stage of his career, potentially leading to even greater scoring and playmaking responsibilities for Tatum. Assuming he returns to full health, Tatum has a legitimate path to career-best usage in 2026-27.
