Jayson Tatum Scores 18 Points In Uber-Efficient Effort
6 years agoBoston Celtics small/power forward Jayson Tatum went for 18 points on 7-for-9 shooting during Saturday’s rout of the Chicago Bulls. That led to just 21 minutes on the floor for Tatum, but he was still able to keep his scoring average at 16.4 points per game on the year, an increase from his rookie campaign. Tatum has been a strong contributor, but remains capped by the nature of a loaded Boston roster. Owners shouldn’t fret the nine shot attempts -- his fewest since Nov. 8 -- as he draws a match-up with the high-octane New Orleans Pelicans come Monday.
