The chances of Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum playing this season appear to be on the rise.
ESPN’s Shams Charania revealed on “NBA Today” Wednesday that Tatum has been a “full go” in five-on-five scrimmages as he continues to rehab from his torn Achilles. While Charania did not give any solid return date for Tatum, the implication is that he has a real chance to play soon.
The buzz around Tatum has been positive for a while, even though the Celtics are being quite tight-lipped about his status and progress.
This latest report will give Celtics fans even more encouragement that Tatum’s return might be in the cards.
