All-NBA forward Jayson Tatum, the rising star of the Boston Celtics, was recently seen working out with Celtics Hall of Fame legend Paul Pierce at the team’s practice facilities at Auerbach Center. Is the St. Louis native picking up tips from the champion small forward who carried the team to a title in 2008 with the help of Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen?

Tatum’s respect for the game’s past and his willingness to learn from veterans like Pierce show clues about his coachability and dedication to winning. Tatum’s playing style and Pierce’s are not too far apart, with the Duke alum ripe to pick up some of the old man game that made The Truth such a terror to guard.

The hosts of the CLNS Media “A-List” podcast recently weighed in on Tatum and Pierce working out together on a recent episode.

Take a look at the clip embedded above to hear what they had to say about Taco Jay getting ready for the 2023-24 season with Pierce.
