Jayson Tatum expressed in a recent interview that despite his considerable achievements, including a championship, six All-Star selections, and a supermax contract before age 27, he feels underappreciated. He aspires to be regarded alongside NBA legends like LeBron James and Stephen Curry. Tatum believes that if his accomplishments were attributed to an anonymous player, the perception would differ significantly. He checks all the boxes for what defines a league face, yet he still feels overshadowed amid discussions of potential successors to current stars.
Honestly, no. If you took the name and the face away from all my accomplishments and you're just like 'This is what this Player A accomplished at 26,' people would talk about [me] a lot differently.
Did he win a championship? Yes. Did he win gold medals? Yes. Was he first-team All-NBA? Those are things that you know are hard evidence.
