Jayson Tatum
April 2026
Jayson Tatum’s comeback has become one of the NBA’s biggest late-season storylines, with Dominique Wilkins publicly backing him as he works back toward full force. The Celtics star is already showing flashes of top form, raising belief that Boston could still peak at the right time. Tatum recently said he feels like himself again after a season-high scoring night, while Boston have won regularly since his return. Wilkins, one of the most famous successful returnees from an Achilles tear, said he is one of Tatum’s biggest supporters as the forward rebuilds rhythm and confidence.
