The Celtics are on track to win 60 games as Jayson Tatum led them to a 129-116 victory over the Trail Blazers. Tatum demonstrated his game control, contributing significantly in both facilitating and scoring. He achieved a near triple-double, finishing with 30 points, 9 rebounds, and 9 assists. The Celtics benefited from the effective scoring of teammates Sam Hauser and Payton Pritchard as well. Meanwhile, the Trail Blazers struggled to defend against Hauser, further solidifying the Celtics' offensive dominance during the match.
"Tatum's greatest superpower - one he really seems to have honed and perfected this year - is his ability to maintain complete control over the game."
"In the first half of Sunday's win, Tatum primarily operated as a facilitator...that worked out well for the Celtics, since Sam Hauser and Payton Pritchard both got hot in the first half."
"He finished just short of a triple-double, tallying 30 points, nine rebounds, and nine assists...the regular season has been a 71-game showcase of his ability to control the game."
"Hauser is a great shooter, which is why it was baffling that he remained unguarded for much of the game, capitalizing on open looks and scoring efficiently."
