If you’ve watched even just a handful of Boston Celtics games this season, you know that Jayson Tatum has a very bright future in the NBA. The 19-year-old (!!) has wowed us with his consistent performances on the offensive and defensive end.
His knack for scoring is what draws the most attention, and for good reason. Tatum’s advanced footwork and isolation moves regularly produce highlight material. Throw in his 46 percent shooting percentage from deep and you have a rookie who looks like a future All-Star that averages 20 a game.
The question is, with how impressive Tatum has been this season, why isn’t he getting – and taking – more shots?
