What Is Wrong With Jayson Tatum?

What Is Wrong With Jayson Tatum? The Celtics young star went just 8-of-23 from the field in the Celtics’ 107-97 loss to the Warriors in Game 4 of NBA Finals. The third game this series that Tatum shot under 40 percent, shooting 4-of-15 from the two-point range in Game 4, dropping his shooting average in the series to 33 percent overall and 27 percent from inside the arc. On top of that, Tatum had a series high 6 TOs in Game 4, bringing his total to 85 TOs this postseason.

“At times he’s looking for fouls,” Head Coach Ime Udoka said postgame. “They are a team that loads up in certain games. He’s finding the outlets. Shooting over two, three guys. That’s the balance of being aggressive and picking your spots and doing what he’s done in previous games, which is kicked it out and got wide-open looks."

“I give them credit, they’re a great team,” Tatum said. “They’re playing well. They got a game plan, things like that. But it’s on me. I got to be better. I know I’m impacting the game in other ways, but I got to be more efficient, shoot the ball better, finish at the rim better. I take accountability for that.”

The Garden Report crew get together to breakdown Tatum's game, analyze why he is struggling, the impact it has, and what Boston needs from him going forward to overcome Steph Curry and the Warriors.
