All of the talk around the Celtics recently has revolved around Jayson Tatum and whether or not he’ll return from achilles surgery this season or not. It’s obviously a massive talking point as JT is one of the biggest stars and best players in the league; his addition could legitimately swing the title race this season.
Not only is that unfair to Tatum as he rehabs from a devastating injury that has derailed careers time and again throughout history, but it’s also unfair to the Celtics, who have played like a championship contender this season without their best player.
