Celtics star Jayson Tatum has already accomplished a lot in his young career. In his first four seasons, he’s made been named an All-Star twice, was named to an All-NBA team, improved his scoring each season, and helped the Celtics reach the Eastern Conference Finals twice.
Now in Year five, Tatum faces two big criticisms the most. With the Celtics falling short in the Eastern Conference Finals twice already in his career and losing to the Nets in the first round of the playoffs last year, several analysts have questioned why Tatum hasn’t been able to break through and reach the NBA Finals yet.
