Jayson Tatum Stats

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (neck) will likely suit up for Game 4 against Miami. Tatum took a hard fall on Saturday night and briefly lost feeling in his arm. However, the 24-year-old eventually made his way back, although his presence didn't make a difference. Head coach Ime Udoka didn't seem concerned about his availability, so DFS managers should consider the recent probable designation as his unofficial green light for Monday night. Still, even with Tatum on the floor, there's a chance the ailment could limit his productivity to some degree.

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (shoulder) finished with 10 points on Saturday night during the loss to Miami. He also added six boards and four assists. The 24-year-old wasn't at his best in Game 3, as he had six turnovers while shooting a rough 3-for-14 from the field and an even worse 1-for-7 from deep. However, the biggest takeaway was the right shoulder injury Tatum sustained in the fourth quarter, one that would send him to the locker room. He did return after regaining feeling and was diagnosed with a stinger. It will be surprising if he doesn't suit up for Game 4, although he'll likely show up on the injury report ahead of Monday night.

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum nearly dropped 30 points in Game 1, but left more in the tank for Thursday's Game 2 contest. The All-Star forward finished with 27 points, five rebounds, and five assists in the victory over the Miami Heat. Tatum went 8-for-13 from the floor and knocked down four triples along the way. The Heat clearly don't have an answer for Tatum, so fantasy managers should expect him to continue this type of play in Game 3.

Boston Celtics small/power forward Jayson Tatum led the way with a team-high 29 points in Tuesday's defeat to Miami. Playing nearly the whole game (44 minutes), Tatum was dogged by a bevy of defenders, but he managed to shoot 10-for-21 overall, even as he went just 2-for-9 from deep. But he continued to affect the game in myriad ways, adding eight rebounds, six assists, and four steals. Including the first two rounds of the postseason, Tatum has knocked down multiple threes in 11 of 12 outings and is averaging 28.3 points, 6.1 assists, and 5.8 rebounds per game. Even when Al Horford (health and safety protocols) and Marcus Smart (foot) return, fantasy managers can anticipate Tatum carrying as much of the offensive load as he can bear in his quest for his first NBA Finals appearance.
