Boston Celtics All-Star small forward Jayson Tatum continued to terrorize his opponents with his preternatural basketball abilities yet again on Wednesday night as the Celtics defeated the Philadelphia 76ers in a 128 – 101 blowout win in Game 2 of their 2020 Eastern Conference first round playoff series.
The Duke product was an absolute problem on both ends of the floor for the Sixers, putting up 33 points, 5 rebounds and as many assists while shooting a sizzling 12-for-20 from the floor and an absurd 8-of-12 from beyond the arc.
There isn’t very much an opposing team can do when Tatum is in his bag, and he was so much against Philly that he could have been mistaken for Santa Claus Wednesday night.
The St. Louis native has been instrumental in making life difficult for the Sixers in this series so far, and he has been critical to putting the Celtics within two games of a sweep of the same team that beat them in three of four regular-season meetings.
