VIDEO: Jayson Tatum Drills Game-Winner vs Knicks on Silky Fadeaway Over RJ Barrett
By Mark Powell
Jayson Tatum takes no prisoners, and this is another learning moment for the young Knicks. In the waning moments at TD Garden, Tatum received the ball with a chance to seal the win, knocking down a fadeaway over a Knicks defender, leaving just over a second on the clock.
The loss of Kyrie Irving and addition of Kemba Walker have labeled the current version of the Celtics a team in transition, and that tag isn't necessarily wrong. Still, Boston is far too talented to dwell in the cellar of playoff contention in the Eastern Conference, or so it would seem.
Tatum's fadeaway three was just another winning moment. The 21-year-old already has several of those to his name.
