Jayson Tatum’s Injury Update for the Clippers vs. Celtics Game
Both the Boston Celtics and the Los Angeles Clippers have made available their injury reports for their thrilling Saturday night matchup. Jayson Tatum is available to play for the Celtics because he is not included on the injury report for the team.
Sadly, Boston’s star duo of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown will still be available despite Kristaps Porzingis’s left ankle sprain ruling him out. This season, Tatum has averaged 27.0 PPG, 8.4 RPG, and 4.4 APG. He has been playing extremely well. Tatum, along with his teammates, has been outstanding as they have led the Celtics to the best basketball record.
With a 35-10 record going into this game against the Clippers, the Celtics lead the Milwaukee Bucks, the second-seeded team in the Eastern Conference, by four games. The Clippers trail both the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Minnesota Timberwolves, who are tied for first place in the Western Conference, coming into this game just two games behind the top seed.
This matchup between two teams vying for a championship could serve as a sneak peek at the NBA Finals. Even though Porzingis’s absence is significant, Boston can win any game because Tatum is healthy.
