Jayson Tatum (Boston Celtics)
October 2025
After tearing his Achilles against the Knicks in May, Jayson Tatum was initially expected to miss nearly all of 2025-26. However, reports now suggest the 27-year-old could return in March, giving Boston a playoff boost if rehab continues to progress.
Tatum has resumed light on-court activity just four months after surgery, training six days a week. While he insists he won’t rush, advances in recovery and surgery have fueled optimism. Before injury, he averaged 26.8 points, 8.7 rebounds, and 6.0 assists.
