JUST IN BOSTON CELTICS:Super Star Significant summer move unlocks Boston Celtics He Should Give Point Ahead Of The Competition
According to Christ Forsberg of NBC Sports Boston, Kristaps Porzingis, the Boston Celtics’ most significant offseason acquisition in the summer of 2023, will be the key component that can maximize Jayson Tatum’s performance as he takes over second unit floor general duties for the 2023–24 season. Tatum will be playing significant backup minutes at point guard if Malcolm Brogdon’s relationship with the team prevents him from missing any time.
“Tatum’s overall efficiency as a pick-and-roll ball-handler has dipped in each of the last three seasons, even as his overall scoring efficiency has improved,” noted Forsberg.
The most encouraging aspect is that Tatum’s potential as a playmaker may be further realized this season if a flexible offensive player like Kristaps Porzingis is present on the court.
The Boston Celtics’ potential is limitless if Jayson Tatum excels as point guard.
The Boston Celtics would be more versatile than any other club in the Association if Tatum were to practice alongside Derrick White at the 1. For all 29 of the starting point guards, No. 0 is a true nightmare matchup, and Tatum can compete defensively with just about anyone.
The Los Angeles Lakers’ postseason ceiling in 2020 appears to be comparable to that of such a Celtics team. LeBron James played point guard exclusively for that team, giving the Lakers three wings and two big men in the frontcourt.

The 2023-24 season’s Cs are built to facilitate that level of talent and present position-less basketball to the rest of the basketball-watching world. Jordan Walsh, Oshae Brissett, and Dalano Banton could be beneficiaries of Tatum taking opportunities from Payton Pritchard and Malcolm Brogdon in the second unit.
Tatum figures this new role out, and Boston having Banner 18 ambitions is hardly an overstep.
