What is wrong with Boston Celtics All-Star forward Jayson Tatum’s game early in the 2021-22 NBA season? The star talent is finding other ways to keep the Celtics in the game most nights, but if he doesn’t get a big game from another player, it can be a fatal flaw to this season’s Celtics — and particularly when there are key players out as well.
Is it his new, muscular frame? The changes in officiating? The new ball being used by the league? New teammates? The new coaching staff? Some combination of all the above?
The hosts of the CLNS Media podcast “The Garden Report” dive into this burning question for the Celtics’ potential success on their most recent episode and try to get to the bottom of what could be the issue while also offering some alternatives.
Watch the video embedded above to get their takes on what is going on with the St. Louis native’s game — and why it’s so important that he fix it.
