Jayson Tatum is on a tear

Jayson Tatum went into the All-Star break on a tear.

In the three games against the New York Knicks, Miami Heat, and San Antonio Spurs, Tatum put up an absurd stat line of 35 points, 9.3 rebounds, and 4.3 assists, with only one turnover, on 61% true shooting. This punctuated the first portion of the regular season in which Tatum has played the best basketball of his career.

Jayson Tatum has become a nightmare for opposing teams to try and defend. On any night, Tatum will see opposing defenses roll through various coverages in hopes of slowing him down.
