Tatum notched 34 points (9-16 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 11-11 FT), eight rebounds, nine assists, a steal and a block across 29 minutes in Friday's 119-80 win over the Hornets.
Tatum could've easily ended with a triple-double had he played something closer to the 35.1 minutes per game he was averaging before Friday's slate. The star forward, who returned from a one-game absence due to rest, surpassed the 30-point mark for the fourth time in eight appearances this season.
Tatum (rest) is off the injury report for Friday's game versus Charlotte, per Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site.
Tatum is ready to suit back up following a rest day Wednesday against the Bucks. The star forward's presence will force either Hugo Gonzalez or Sam Hauser to shift back to a bench role Friday.
Tatum will be rested Wednesday against the Bucks, Jack Simone of BostonSportsJournal.com reports.
The writing was on the wall for this one with the Celtics looking to get Tatum some planned rest. There's been no report of an injury, to be clear. Paul George, who is coming off a maintenance day himself, is in line for a big bump in usage Wednesday.
Tatum (rest) is questionable for Wednesday against the Bucks, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.
Tatum's questionable designation suggests Boston could give its star forward a night off for maintenance purposes. His status will be worth monitoring ahead of Wednesday's tip-off, as his potential absence would open up additional scoring opportunities for the Celtics' remaining starters.
Tatum totaled 19 points (5-16 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 8-8 FT), six rebounds, nine assists and one steal in 32 minutes during Monday's 109-93 loss to Houston.
Tatum struggled to get his shot to fall but still managed to lead Boston in scoring. He's hitting at a clip of 23.1 percent from deep over his last four matchups, though that hasn't prevented him from tallying 20-plus points in three of the four showings. Tatum has also managed to find success as a playmaker, as he's now averaging 7.9 dimes in seven games this season.
