Jayson Tatum is a key Celtics cog, short & long-term

It is not simply that Jayson Tatum came through with a solid game against the Los Angeles Clippers last night. His 18 points on 7-of-16 shooting, six rebounds and three assists were certainly welcome in the 113-102 win that prevented a five-game losing streak for the Celtics. He was aggressive on offense and looking to create his own shots. He scored from deep, drove to the hoop and made jumpers on the move.

His three assists were probably more notable than his points.
