Boston Celtics All-NBA small forward Jayson Tatum had himself an outstanding game against the Miami Heat in Game 3 of their East Conference Finals series on Saturday night.
The Duke product scored 25 points, 14 rebounds, and 8 assists while going 5-of-5 from the free throw line in 41 minutes of game time in the must-win contest, Tatum helping to fuel the Celtics’ return to the win column.
That it came after a highly-publicized (and probably overblown) post-game brouhaha following the Celtics’ hard-fought Game 2 loss is even more impressive.
Tatum will have a little while to recover with a few extra days longer than usual to recover courtesy of Monday Night Football, and Boston will need every player fresh and rested to have a good shot at a Game 4 win.
But if you want to see some Celtics basketball in the meantime, or just want to relive his best play from Game 3, watch the video embedded above for all of Tatum’s best plays from Saturday night’s contest.
