Jayson Tatum 27 Pts 11 Rebs Highlights!

Jayson's a beast! I'd say he's the most NBA ready player in this year's draft, with Markelle Fultz, Dennis Smith Jr., and Josh Jackson close by.

In terms of Boston's rotation, I'm not sure where he'd lie. Does Coach Brad put him in the fire and start him with Isaiah in the backcourt? Spot minutes in garbage time? 2nd Unit minutes? I wouldn't mind him starting at the 2 with the departure of Avery Bradley! All I know is, the kid's got game and hopefully he can live up to his potential. Of course, we get a small sample size from summer league, so let's hope it translates into the NBA!

Great question! I'm actually interested to see how the lineup will look. I'm expecting something like Thomas, Hayward, Crowder, Morris, and Horford to start the season. I'd be really surprised if he throws Tatum in the starting lineup to begin the season. He's gotta earn something right?

Yeah, I agree! That would seem like a good lineup for Boston; but, I actually thought that the Gordon Hayward contract would mean more transactions to be had for GM Ainge and the front office; a la sign and trade with Jae Crowder, etc; so, I have a hunch that Boston's not done wheeling and dealing.

I do think that Jayson would fit well with the 2nd unit. Less pressure, more opportunities to score with Jaylen Brown and company! I guess it all depends on how fast they want this kid to develop. He'd be pretty useful weapon for Boston off the bench for sure!
