Boston Celtics Star Jayson Tatum Out For Season After Achilles Surgery

Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum underwent successful surgery to repair a ruptured right Achilles tendon, the team announced Tuesday. The injury is officially season-ending.

The 27-year-old All-Star, who has been leading the Celtics in points (28.1), rebounds (11.5), and assists (5.4) per game, was injured late in Boston’s 121-113 Game 4 loss to the New York Knicks, putting both the defending champions’ title defense and Jayson Tatum’s future for next season in jeopardy.

No timeline has been provided for his full return, but he is expected to make a complete recovery.

The Knicks currently lead the Celtics 3-1 in the Eastern Conference semifinals. Game 5 is set for Wednesday night in Boston. Jayson Tatum’s injury evokes memories of Kevin Durant’s Achilles tear in the 2019 NBA Finals, which caused him to miss the entire 2019-2020 season.

With Tatum out indefinitely, Kristaps Porzi??is may become pivotal for Boston’s playoff aspirations.

Prayers on a speedy recovery!
