The 28-year-old will miss his first game of the season as the Celtics navigate eight games in 13 days.

Tatum could be rested as the Celtics are in the midst of an eight-game stretch in the span of 13 days. Tatum is averaging 27.0 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 7.9 assists per game this season. His absence would leave a big scoring void in the Celtics' lineup.

He shot 9-for-19 from the field and 4-for-10 from three in his first preseason action. Tatum said he feels fresh after a full summer of Achilles rehab, which is encouraging after he shot 41.1% across 16 games following his March return. With Jaylen Brown now in Philadelphia, Tatum is back as Boston's clear top option, even with Paul George joining the lineup.

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's Game 7 against the Philadelphia 76ers, ESPN's Tim Bontemps reports. He was a late addition to the injury report Saturday afternoon due to a knee issue, and the team has officially ruled him out ahead of tip-off. "He just came in today with knee discomfort," Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla said during his pregame press conference. "And we decided, the medical staff and myself, that he would not play." With Tatum out, Boston must lean on Jaylen Brown, Derrick White, and Payton Pritchard on offense. Meanwhile, Sam Hauser, Baylor Scheierman, and Jordan Walsh could see larger roles in the rotation.

Across his career, Tatum has averaged 26.7 points, 9.3 rebounds, and 5.1 assists in Game 7s. He would be a massive loss for the Celtics, who have suffered two straight defeats after taking a 3-1 lead in the series.

The six-time All-Star was 8-for-19 from the field, including 4-for-12 from outside, and even struggled at the free-throw line, going 4-for-7. Overall, Tatum's percentages have improved in the playoffs, and he has been busy all over the court while averaging 37.8 minutes per game.

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum recorded 25 points, 11 rebounds, seven assists, and two steals in 32 minutes during Sunday's Game 1 blowout win over Philadelphia. He set the tone early with a strong first quarter and controlled the game as a rebounder and facilitator, finishing just short of a triple-double. While his perimeter shot lagged at one make from deep, his all-around production remains elite for DFS. Tatum continues to anchor Boston's offense alongside Jaylen Brown, with Derrick White taking on added secondary playmaking responsibilities in the starting unit.

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (Achilles) won't play on Friday against the New Orleans Pelicans. His absence was expected because Boston also played on Thursday night. In a game against the New York Knicks, Tatum had 24 points, 13 rebounds, eight assists, one steal, and one block in 40 minutes. The Celtics could also be without Jaylen Brown (Achilles), who is considered questionable. In this case, Jordan Walsh, Baylor Scheierman, and Hugo Gonzalez are candidates for increased roles. The absence of Tatum and Brown will also create a lot more offensive opportunities for the rest of the team.
