Jayson Tatum Scores Just 12 Points
6 years agoBoston Celtics small forward Jayson Tatum had a relatively quiet night as his team picked up a win on Thursday against the Milwaukee Bucks. He scored just 12 points, on 4-of-9 shooting and hit both of his free-throws. Tatum added six rebounds, four assists, and two three-pointers, in 32 minutes. While his teammates Kyrie Irving and Gordon Hayward have started to figure out their offense, Tatum has begun to sputter. Over his last five games, he’s shooting just 35 percent from the field. It will be incredibly tough for Tatum to live up to his lofty ADP, if he struggles with his shot, as he doesn't do nearly enough else to warrant being drafted that high. Moreover, he may not get that many shots in general, with the Celtics embarrassment of riches on the offensive end. Hopefully, Tatum can get back on track against the Indiana Pacers on Saturday.
