Jayson Tatum has been at the center of several debates for much of his eight-year career, but the latest one doesn’t involve his on-court play.

Fans and media members have tried to give Tatum a permanent nickname over the last few weeks. One in particular has seemed to take off, with several Celtics fans calling Tatum “The Anomaly” on social media as of late.

In fact, “The Anomaly” nickname has become so popular online that the Trail Blazers called Tatum by the name in a social media post previewing their game against the Celtics Wednesday.
