  Tatum (ankle) is available for Tuesday's game against the Hawks, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports. Tatum rolled his ankle on what could've been a Flagrant 1 on Giannis Antetokounmpo during Sunday's win over Milwaukee, but the former didn't miss any time and finished with 31 points, 12 rebounds and six assists in 40 minutes. While Tatum has the green light to suit up Tuesday, coach Joe Mazzulla may be cautious with the MVP candidate's minutes, as it's the first night of a back-to-back set for Boston.

  Tatum is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Hawks due to a left ankle sprain, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.

When Jaylen Brown missed a four-game stretch earlier this season, Boston filled his absence with numerous bodies, including Payton Pritchard, Sam Hauser, Neemias Queta and Jordan Walsh.

  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Tatum finished Friday's 108-104 overtime win over Brooklyn with 33 points (11-25 FG, 5-13 3Pt, 6-7 FT), nine rebounds, six assists, two steals and one block over 42 minutes. Tatum was the game's leading scorer Friday, and his 42 minutes were second-most behind teammate Derrick White (43). Tatum was one rebound shy from registering his fourth double-double of the season, and he logged six-plus assists for the fourth time. The No. 3 overall pick of the 2017 NBA Draft continues to carry the load for the Celtics this season, even as opposing teams hone in on him more in the absence of co-star Jaylen Brown (hip). Through the first 10 games of the 2024-25 regular season, Tatum is averaging 30.5 points on 47.8 percent shooting (including 37.1 percent from three on 11.6 3PA/G), 7.2 rebounds, 4.9 assists and 1.8 steals over 35.6 minutes per contest.
