Jayson Tatum hopes summer focus on strength, ball security will pay off

In an interview with the Globe’s Adam Himmelsbach that closely resembles those grade school essays – “What I did this summer”, Jayson Tatum touched on his workouts with Joel Embiid and Kobe Bryant, his teammates and more.

While Tatum’s quote game needs a lot of work, he did say a few things that caught my attention:

Q.You said at the end of last season you were focused on adding strength. How is that going?

A. It’s a little tough right now to gain weight super-fast, but I’ve definitely been working out a lot and I’ve noticed I’ve gotten a lot stronger, so I think that’s most important.
