Ime Udoka's Rockets were effective in limiting Tatum in the Celtics' loss Monday, but Joe Mazzulla's team adjusted and thrived in beating the Bulls.

As opponents have tried to dent the Celtics’ championship armor, however, Tatum has remained consistent. He ranks sixth in the NBA in scoring, (26.7 points per game). He has scored at least 30 points in 18 out of 45 games. And he remains on track to finish with career highs in rebounds (9.0) and assists (5.4) per game.

Jayson Tatum struggled from the field shooting 5-14 with 19 points while Jaylen Brown carried a majority of the load shooting 10-23 and finishing with 28 points. Payton Pritchard added 15 points off the bench including the unsuccessful full-court heave as time expired.

The Boston Celtics are set to cross swords against their conference rivals Chicago Bulls in a regular season matchup on Wednesday.

As the NBA season continues to roll while the WNBA moves through the offseason, the Blue Zone is here with more updates from former Blue Devils.

Some of Boston's best athletes, like the Patriots' Tom Brady and the Red Sox's Mookie Betts, have to leave town. But fans still love them.

After Joe Mazzulla tinkered with the Celtics’ rotations earlier this month, Kristaps Porziņģis has heated up while Jayson Tatum cooled and saw more defensive pressure.

Jayson Tatum has been named as an Eastern Conference All-Star starter for the 2025 All-Star game. The Boston Celtics star will be making his fifth consecutive All-Star appearance and his sixth overall.

Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, and the rest of the Celtics were surprised by the 3-point barrage from Rockets forward Dillon Brooks.
