Sun May 22 202219:17Jayson Tatum Expected To Suit Up In Game 4
Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (neck) will likely suit up for Game 4 against Miami. Tatum took a hard fall on Saturday night and briefly lost feeling in his arm. However, the 24-year-old eventually made his way back, although his presence didn't make a difference. Head coach Ime Udoka didn't seem concerned about his availability, so DFS managers should consider the recent probable designation as his unofficial green light for Monday night. Still, even with Tatum on the floor, there's a chance the ailment could limit his productivity to some degree.

Sun May 22 202213:08Jayson Tatum Suffers Stinger In Game 3
Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (shoulder) finished with 10 points on Saturday night during the loss to Miami. He also added six boards and four assists. The 24-year-old wasn't at his best in Game 3, as he had six turnovers while shooting a rough 3-for-14 from the field and an even worse 1-for-7 from deep. However, the biggest takeaway was the right shoulder injury Tatum sustained in the fourth quarter, one that would send him to the locker room. He did return after regaining feeling and was diagnosed with a stinger. It will be surprising if he doesn't suit up for Game 4, although he'll likely show up on the injury report ahead of Monday night.

Fri May 20 202210:40Jayson Tatum Continues Hot Stretch
Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum nearly dropped 30 points in Game 1, but left more in the tank for Thursday's Game 2 contest. The All-Star forward finished with 27 points, five rebounds, and five assists in the victory over the Miami Heat. Tatum went 8-for-13 from the floor and knocked down four triples along the way. The Heat clearly don't have an answer for Tatum, so fantasy managers should expect him to continue this type of play in Game 3.

Wed May 18 202211:05Jayson Tatum Compiles 29 Points In Strong Game 1 Showing
Boston Celtics small/power forward Jayson Tatum led the way with a team-high 29 points in Tuesday's defeat to Miami. Playing nearly the whole game (44 minutes), Tatum was dogged by a bevy of defenders, but he managed to shoot 10-for-21 overall, even as he went just 2-for-9 from deep. But he continued to affect the game in myriad ways, adding eight rebounds, six assists, and four steals. Including the first two rounds of the postseason, Tatum has knocked down multiple threes in 11 of 12 outings and is averaging 28.3 points, 6.1 assists, and 5.8 rebounds per game. Even when Al Horford (health and safety protocols) and Marcus Smart (foot) return, fantasy managers can anticipate Tatum carrying as much of the offensive load as he can bear in his quest for his first NBA Finals appearance.

Sun May 15 202220:03Jayson Tatum Cools Off In Game 7
Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum finished with 23 points during the Game 7 win over the Bucks. He also added eight assists, six rebounds, and a block. Tatum had a dreadful seven turnovers on Sunday, and he also cooled off offensively after dropping 46 points during Game 6 on Friday night. However, he didn't need to do much, primarily with Grant Williams leading both clubs in scoring, thanks to his effective 7-for-18 shooting effort from deep. Nonetheless, Tatum has been fantastic throughout the playoffs. While others can get it going on the scoring end, Tatum should continue to be the No. 1 option for Boston during the Eastern Conference Finals versus the Miami Heat. DFS managers should continue to keep him in mind despite his hefty rostering cost.

Sat May 14 202212:38Jayson Tatum Scores 46 Points In Game 6
Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum scored a game-high 46 points during the win over Milwaukee on Friday night. The 24-year-old went 17-for-32 from the field, and he was even more proficient from deep by draining nearly half of his 15 attempts. This type of performance has been the norm for Tatum during this round, where he's averaged 28 points and almost 24 shots per outing. At this rate, there's no reason to keep him out of DFS lineups for Game 7 on Sunday, even though it will cost you to acquire his services.

Mon May 9 202222:15Jayson Tatum Leads Boston To A Win On Monday
Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum finished with 30 points during the postseason victory over the Milwaukee Bucks. He also got after it defensively by racking up four blocks. The 24-year-old bounced back from a horrendous Game 3 showing, where he scored only 10 points on a horrific 4-for-19 shooting from the field. Now tied at two games each, the series will head back to Boston for Game 5. DFS managers won't find many players as potent as Tatum, although his hefty rostering cost won't make things easy in terms of lineup construction.

Sat May 7 202221:28Jayson Tatum Struggles In Loss
Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (wrist) had a tough time getting anything to go his way during Saturday's loss to the Milwaukee Bucks. The All-Star forward has been dealing with a lingering left wrist injury for around two months. Tatum did fall to the ground on a dunk, but he appeared to be fine afterwards. He finished the game with 10 points on 4-of-19 shooting in the 2-point loss in Game 3. Obviously, Tatum isn't 100 percent healthy, but he is going to continue fighting through the pain.

Mon Apr 18 202212:58Jayson Tatum Knocks Down Buzzer-Beater In Game 1
Boston Celtics small/power forward Jayson Tatum found himself in the right place at the right time with time winding down Sunday vs. Brooklyn, as he snatched a pass from Marcus Smart and laid it in just prior to the final buzzer sounding. The layup gave Tatum 31 points, his fourth consecutive 30-plus-point playoff performance, all of which have come against the Nets. In addition to the scoring, Tatum dished out a team-high eight assists and added four rebounds and two blocks across a whopping 45-minute allotment. Tatum and Jaylen Brown will remain the team's offensive focal points throughout the series, giving them stable floors ahead of Game 2 on Wednesday.

Thu Apr 7 202214:13Jayson Tatum, Al Horford Resting Thursday
Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (knee) and center Al Horford (back) are both getting the day off on Thursday as the team takes on the Milwaukee Bucks. Tatum's absence could open the door to more minutes for second-year small forward Aaron Nesmith. Unfortunately, Nesmith hasn't been able to produce much of anything when the minutes have been there this year. Meanwhile, with Horford out, we should see Grant Williams step into the starting five and have a solid night. Starting center Daniel Theis should be in for a boost as well, especially in the rebounding department.

Boston Celtics guards Jayson Tatum (knee) and Jaylen Brown (knee) are both officially good to go for Wednesday night's game against the Miami Heat. Both players had been listed as probable going into the day, so it's not much of a surprise to see them both active. Both players were rested during the team's previous game against the Toronto Raptors on Monday. Expect them back in full force for Wednesday's contest. Make sure they're in your lineup for the night.

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (knee) and guard Jaylen Brown (knee) are both listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Miami Heat. Both players sat out during Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors. While they were both listed as having knee injuries for the game, it was in actuality a rest game for the two Celtics stars. Upon their return on Wednesday, Aaron Nesmith and Derrick White will slide back into bench roles.

Mon Mar 28 202215:10Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown Out On Monday
Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (rest) and guard Jaylen Brown (rest) have been ruled out for Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors. This is the second night of a back-to-back set, so the Celtics will rest some of their starters. They've already lost Robert Williams III (knee) for the rest of the regular season. The Celtics are tied for the first seed in the East, so they don't want to risk anymore injuries. That being said, Marcus Smart, Derrick White, Grant Williams, and Payton Pritchard should all see significant boosts on Monday.

Tue Mar 22 202209:53Jayson Tatum Closes Out Road Trip With 36 Points
Boston Celtics small/power forward Jayson Tatum led his team in scoring for the 11th consecutive game during Monday's victory over Oklahoma City, dropping 36 points on an efficient 11-for-19 shooting. In addition to knocking down all nine of his free throws, Tatum added seven rebounds, six assists, five made triples, and two steals across 39 minutes. Star players facing the Thunder down the stretch will have the built-in advantage in the DFS market of taking on a group that has allowed at least 120 points in seven of their last eight games. Tatum next takes the floor Wednesday against the Jazz, whom he scuffled from three against (2-for-11) back on Dec. 3, but he ultimately wound up dropping 37 points anyway.

Boston Celtics small/power forward Jayson Tatum was wildly efficient during Friday's drubbing of the Kings, going 12-for-16 overall from the field -- including 7-for-10 from behind the arc -- en route to a 32-point performance. Tatum also pitched in five boards and four assists, as he is now on pace to set a new career high with 8.2 rebounds per game in 2021-22. March has been an offensive deluge for Tatum, who has averaged 34.8 PPG over eight contests, shooting 51.6% overall and 43.6% from deep. Next up is a showdown vs. Denver on Sunday, with the Nuggets having held Tatum to 26% shooting from three-point range in nine career matchups, his lowest mark against any opponent.

Tue Jan 4 202217:44Jayson Tatum Returns To Practice Tuesday
Boston Celtics small/power forward Jayson Tatum has received the green light to get back in the mix from the league's health and safety protocols, paving the way for him to suit up Wednesday vs. San Antonio after he was not listed on the team's injury report. Tatum missed four contests due to the protocols, with his return knocking other key Boston offensive contributors down a notch in DFS value. Tatum, who ranks as the ninth-highest scorer in the league (25.6 PPG), averages the most shot attempts on a nightly basis (21.5), a mark that will likely remain sky high upon his return as the Celtics attempt to find their rhythm.

Mon Dec 27 202115:16Jayson Tatum Enters COVID-19 Protocols
Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum has entered the league's health and safety protocols. This marks eight players on the Celtics roster who won't be available for Monday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. It sounds like Tatum won't be eligible to return until January 5, so fantasy managers should be able to move him into an IR spot. In the meantime, Jaylen Brown will be asked to carry the offense and see a spike in usage. Marcus Smart (hand) is questionable for Monday's game, but would see increased usage as well. Payton Pritchard, Romeo Langford, and Joe Johnson would see bigger roles with the Celtics shorthanded right now.

The performance was Tatum's second 40-plus point game of the season and he is now shooting over 50% in December. Efficiency has plagued two-time All-Star, and positive regression in the category would actualize his fantasy value as the rest of his numbers are in line for the season.

Tatum started his scoring tear since Jaylen Brown (hamstring) dropped out of the lineup, and he has no time to cool down, with Boston back in action on Wednesday against the Clippers.
