Rutgers star Ace Bailey models his offensive game after a trio of standout NBA scorers. At the NBA draft combine, Bailey cited the Philadelphia 76ers' Paul George and Boston Celtics' Jayson Tatum as inspirations for their shot creation. He also loves the mid-range ability of Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant:

The Boston Celtics, after entering the NBA season as favorites to repeat as title winners, suffered a brutal injury to their best player. In Game 4 against the New York Knicks, superstar Jayson Tatum went down with an injury, later revealed to be a torn Achilles.

The Celtics are in a 3-1 series hole after dropping Game 4 on Monday in Madison Square Garden, shellshocked not only by the loss of Tatum but by the reality of facing elimination when the plan was to repeat as champions.

Charles Barkley knows who Jayson Tatum's first call should be when it comes to rehabbing a ruptured Achilles tendon.

Jayson Tatum’s potentially serious lower left leg injury cast a pall over the second round. Tatum collapsed to the ground in the fourth quarter of the Celtics’ Game 4 loss to the New York Knicks and had to be carried off the court after he was writhing in pain and grabbing at the back of his ankle.
