Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown garner rave reviews from teammates

It’s hard not to get giddy over the sensational play of young stars Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown through two postseason games.

And their Celtics teammates are sharing in the excitement that many fans are feeling over the franchise’s young stars.

The Celtics had a front row seat to another Tatum and Brown spectacle Wednesday night, when the dynamic duo was yet again front and center in helping Boston dismantle the Philadelphia 76ers, 128-101, to take a 2-0 opening round series lead.

A game after setting a new postseason career high in scoring, the 22-year-old Tatum reset that mark in the victory by pouring in 33 points, including draining a ridiculous 8-of-12 attempts from beyond the arc.
