TRENDING News: How will Boston Celtics end their super bowl “Jayson Tatum agree 99.5 million deal with cowboys today…
The Boston Celtics are expected to have another solid year, and a big part of that will be the contributions of Jayson Tatum. The All-Star forward has continued to improve in every major statistical category and last season, he scored a career-high 30.1 points per game.
The Celtics hope his form in the regular season will continue for the new campaign and help the team back into the NBA Finals. Boston added two more star-caliber players in Kristaps Porzingis and Jrue Holiday, but Tatum is still expected to be the offensive leader of this team.
The 25-year-old’s high scoring and constant improvement in other areas is great news for Celtics fans. Aside from them, fantasy league players who drafted Tatum should feel good about their acquisition.
As per ESPN’s Fantasy Basketball projections, the Celtics forward is expected to have another big season. He is ranked third behind Nikola Jokic and Giannis Antetokounmpo.
He is projected to score 32.0 points per game, an improvement from last season. His assists are projected to rise from last season’s 4.6 to 5.0. A marginal drop in his rebounding is expected, as ESPN predicts that he will go from 8.8 to 8.4.
