Jayson Tatum's Dad Has Blunt Message About Celtics Roster
This probably isn't what the Celtics want to hear from their star player's father.
Jayson Tatum's father, Justin Tatum, recently expressed his dissatisfaction with the current Boston Celtics roster on the Ultimate Dads Unplugged podcast. Justin Tatum confidently predicted that the New York Knicks would win the 2026-27 NBA championship, dismissing his son's team as having a poor roster. The Celtics are set to undergo significant changes next season, with Jaylen Brown leaving after a stellar year and the team acquiring Paul George, Mike Conley Jr., and Mitchell Robinson.
Despite these changes, Jayson Tatum's assessment of the roster being "s—" suggests that the team will still face increased pressure on Jayson Tatum to perform at an MVP level. ESPN predicts the Celtics to win 48 games in the 2023-24 season, placing them among the top contenders in the Eastern Conference alongside the Knicks, Detroit Pistons, Cleveland Cavaliers, and Philadelphia 76ers.
