It may not be the last time that these two ballers share a spotlight of this magnitude, as the Celtics remain atop the league. But Tatum has been working for this since the franchise drafted him with the No. 3 overall pick in 2017.
Celtics’ lofty expectations in the 2024-25 NBA campaign
While it’s difficult for any NBA champion in history to outshine the success of their previous season, Tatum and this Celtics squad are currently ahead of their competition. Spearheaded by Tatum, the roster is loaded with dynamic playmakers and role players that can sustain the excellence through the course of an 82-game stretch.
Jaylen Brown continues to be the ideal partner in crime for Boston’s starting unit, while Derrick White, Jrue Holiday and Al Horford bring invaluable cohesiveness from last year.
The Celtics kick things off against the Knicks on Tuesday, as they embark on another serious run for a title in the competitive Eastern Conference.
