In a recent visit to his Celtics teammates after undergoing surgery for a ruptured Achilles' tendon, Jayson Tatum's positive demeanor impressed his teammates, highlighting their bond during challenging times. Payton Pritchard noted that they focused more on Tatum's well-being than basketball strategies. Amidst the playoffs, the Celtics achieved a significant victory without Tatum, showcasing a new faster-paced play style that adapted to his absence. The team is rallying together, expressing a commitment to support their injured star during his recovery process, signifying strong camaraderie and dedication beyond the sport.
"It sucks to see someone like that go down who doesn't deserve it, but he wouldn't want anything more than us to just keep winning."
"It was really good seeing him, obviously he's out of surgery. He seemed like he was in really good spirits and stuff."
"That stuff is bigger than basketball now. It's just seeing how he is as a person, how he's dealing with stuff. The basketball side, we'll handle that."
"We put together our highest-scoring performance of the playoffs in the Game 5 victory, playing at a faster pace and moving the ball efficiently."
