Just how good is Jayson Tatum right now and how good can he become? Is he already a top-10 player, or just knocking on the door?
Well on Sunday Tatum looked like best player on the planet as he dropped 54 points in a 126-120 win over the Brooklyn Nets, out-dueling Kevin Durant who scored 37.
Tatum has received the highest praise from some of the NBA’s elite talent, including Durant who called the young Celtics star an “elite shot-maker” after Sunday’s game at TD Garden.
Celtics play-by-play announcer Sean Grande believes Tatum should strive for more than just the approval and adulation of players he may have looked up to earlier in his career.
