The Boston Celtics’ Big Three of Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, and Kemba Walker is no stranger to tight contests. They have a lengthy playoff run together under their belt that includes a do-or-die Game 7 victory in the second round of the 2020 playoffs.
While Brooklyn’s new trio works to develop late-game synergy, the Celtics are steps ahead. All that time in the trenches creates a level of familiarity they can lean on when similar circumstances arise.
“I’ve got great chemistry with Kemba on and off the court,” Tatum said after playing with his point guard for the first time this season.
