In a physical game that included a dislocated shoulder, a sprained ankle, a twisted knee, and a Flagrant 1 on an arm pull, it was the artful playmaking of Jayson Tatum that made the difference in a potential playoff preview against the Heat on Sunday afternoon.
Tatum lead the Celtics in scoring with 26 and ten rebounds, but he might have been more impressive giving the ball up.
“It’s all about making the right read. They’re not really going to let you play one-on-one. They’re going to show you a crowd, send some doubles,” Tatum told ESPN’s Cassidy Hubbarth after posting an impressive nine assists with just one turnover in the Miami matinee.
