Tatum on his relationship with Jaylen:

I was a Celtics fan before and will remain one after but it feels pretty normal to show the guy some appreciation for his 10 years with the team
Will miss JB heavily but people are forgetting that D White and Pritchard are gonna up their scoring to around 20ppg, and then adding PG as a spacer on top of Mitch as the rim protector. I like our chances next year personally.
