Mazzula: Tatum’s leadership on the court is gone, he now leads the team off the court

Celtics head coach Joe Mazzula was interviewed by the media and talked about the recovery of Celtics player Jayson Tatum.

"Jayson Tatum has always done a good job." Joe Mazzula said in the interview.

"Everyone is leading the team in different ways, and Jayson Tatum has done a great job in that regard."

"Obviously, his leadership on the court is not taken away now, but he is now taking the lead off the court."

"Jason -Tatum first showed great professionalism during his recovery from injury, and at the same time, he also established a great personal connection with everyone. These are invaluable in the locker room."

Jayson Tatum has not played in any games this season due to surgery to repair his right Achilles tendon.
