During a recent game, Kings center Domantas Sabonis expressed regret after accidentally causing Jayson Tatum of the Boston Celtics to injure his ankle when Tatum landed on Sabonis' foot following a jump shot. Although Sabonis was forthcoming and apologetic about the incident, Tatum's injury appears to be minor. Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla reported that Tatum was icing the injury and managed to shoot free throws before leaving the game. Tatum had led the Celtics with 25 points before leaving, showcasing his significant contribution to the team's performance.
"I feel horrible. I've had a crazy month myself personally, and you never want that to happen so I apologize."
"He seems to be doing ok. He's just icing it right now. I didn't see the play but they made the right call, flagrant foul."
"Up until the point he got hurt, he was cooking. He was the one carrying us."
"Sabonis jumped towards Tatum to contest the shot, and Tatum landed on his foot. The Celtics forward fell to the floor, grabbed his ankle in pain."
