Breaking: Jayson Tatum Bombshell Rocks Celtics Nation Right After Suns Game – Here’s What We Know

Following a tough loss to the Miami Heat on Wednesday, the Boston Celtics bounced back on Friday with an impressive 20-point victory over the Phoenix Suns. Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum led the charge, contributing 31 and 23 points, respectively. With that win, the Celtics now turn their attention to their upcoming matchup against the Washington Wizards.

Boston has already defeated Washington three times this season and will aim to complete the season sweep when they meet again on Sunday. Although the Celtics have essentially secured the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference, they are looking to finish strong and build momentum as they head into the postseason.

As Sunday’s game approaches, the team issued an update that may concern fans—Jayson Tatum has been added to the injury report with a sprained ankle and is currently listed as questionable. His status will be monitored closely up until tip-off.

Tatum has played a crucial role in Boston’s recent success. Since the beginning of March, the team has dropped just two games, thanks in large part to his consistent and impactful play. Tatum, who has placed in the top six in MVP voting the past three seasons, is once again having an outstanding year. In 70 games so far, he is averaging 26.9 points, 8.7 rebounds, 6 assists, and 1.1 steals per game.

If he is unable to play against the Wizards, fans can expect his next opportunity to take the court to be Tuesday, when the Celtics face off against the New York Knicks.

As the regular season winds down, the Celtics are focused on maintaining their rhythm and health heading into the playoffs. Whether or not Tatum suits up on Sunday, Boston will look to keep their winning momentum alive and finish the season strong.
