Jayson Tatum stuffed the stat sheet with 33 points, 13 rebounds, six assists, a steal, and a block on Saturday, leading the Celtics a 106-93 win over the Cavs to take a 2-1 lead in this Eastern Conference Semifinals series.
Jayson Tatum entered Game 3 against the Cavaliers shooting 38.9% from the field in this Eastern Conference Semifinals series. That includes averaging one made three for every five he was taking, a 20% conversion rate.
"I respect your guys' job; I respect the guys on TV," said the former Duke Blue Devil. "I don't always agree with the things that they say, but when they're fair, and they take emotions out of it, whatever way that they're leaning toward, and they're fair, I respect it. I understand what the media has brought to our game — more eyes, more attention, and how everybody has benefited from that.
And while water finally found its level on Saturday in Cleveland, Tatum also stuffed the stat sheet. That includes grabbing 13 rebounds. He was the only player on either side to reach double digits in that category. His six assists matched Darius Garland for the most in the matchup, and he swiped a steal and blocked a shot."Yeah, I would love to make every shot I take, and I know I can shoot better, and I will," voiced Tatum at the podium post-game.
"JT always gonna be JT on the offensive end. But I think defensively, he did a great job. Got some key stops, nice blocks, and some big rebounds. I know that we trust him so much on the offensive end, but defensively is really where I'm so impressed by him. I don't think he gets enough credit on the defensive end."
