Kevin Durant believes Jayson Tatum must be phenomenal, and the Brooklyn Nets star made it a point to let the Boston Celtics realize that when they teamed up for Team USA on their way to the Tokyo Olympics last season.
talk over Draymond Green Show reviewed how Durant got angry with him when Tatum passed the ball to him on the main offensive day between Team USA and Select Team. If he’d been in Boston, as the Celtics star says, he could have hit the ball on a regular now. Unfortunately, he was unable to shoot and suddenly passed the ball to KD on his right.
Durant, though, could do without moving and check in on Tatum in disarray. Later, at that point, he reminded the teenager to have the hangman mentality.
“Somebody hit me and I was going to hit it with the Celtics. But it was like I couldn’t hit it and I remembered KD was on my right. [so] I forwarded it to him,” Tatum shared. “I remember you getting mad at me. It was like, ‘No, don’t look at me.’ Be yourself, I need you to kill.”

Jayson Tatum’s journey so far
All things considered, it definitely impressed Jayson Tatum and reminded the Celtics star to be consistent with himself and play the standard thing, like his dominant self.
Frankly, this really helped Team USA as well. Tatum averaged 15.2 points and 3.3 rebounds on a 44.7 percent field goal during the Tokyo Olympics and is poised for the crew to win the gold medal.
Jayson Tatum seems to have earned this equivalent attitude in the NBA, too. Despite a sluggish start to the 2021-22 season, he has since been setting MVP numbers in the final part of the year. He averages 27.0 points, 8.0 rebounds and 4.3 assists on 45.1 percent accuracy in this task, but deserves to average 28.2 points on all games in 2022, with 48.3 percent shooting accuracy.
As Tatum said lately, he could have been MVP earlier if he had started the year the way he’s playing now. As pompous as that may sound, Tatum arguably deserves credit after he put the Celtics into an argument for favourite, after looking like they were going to the qualifying competition all things considered.
The Celtics will unequivocally believe that Tatum should maintain this certainty and executioner stance until the end of the season’s games. They have an incredible opportunity to make it to the finals, but it all depends on how Tatum plays. Fortunately for them, their All-Star looks incredible, both in reality and intellectually. Hi, maybe Boston will thank Kevin Durant for this.
