Jayson Tatum has been dealing with a left wrist ailment since at least the 2022 playoffs. He took a measure to treat that this offseason, but didn’t go under the knife.
The Celtics star opted to forego surgery on his left wrist over the offseason, receiving a cortisone shot instead, ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne reported.
“He went into the offseason thinking he might need surgery on his non-shooting wrist,” Shelburne said on “NBA Today.” “He went to a bunch of specialists and essentially decided, ‘I’m not gonna get the surgery, I don’t need it,’ got a cortisone shot — he said it feels really good.
