Tatum's Return: Celtics' Offense Shifts, Fans Worry

0:00It's March 23rd. You're listening to Boston Celtics News today, AI-powered coverage of your squad. Since Jason Tatum returned to the Boston Celtics lineup, the team has gone six wins and three losses. He suited up for eight of those nine games, putting up 19.1 points, 8.9 rebounds, and 3.3 assists per game. His field goal percentage sits at 38.8%, while threes are at 29.3%. The offense has shifted a bit as everyone gets used to another high volume score on the court. Tatum looks sharp handling the ball, driving, and grabbing boards, but he's not converting those shots like before. Fans are starting to worry about his postseason punch, with some questioning if the Celtics can go all the way. Analysts like Manning point out the team wasn't championship ready even without these hiccups, so his form isn't derailing some dream run. Coming into the season, expectations were low, but Boston has surprised everyone so far. Still, any squad plays better with a star like Tatum active instead of sideline.
