Boston Celtics: Jayson Tatum’s recent struggles near the rim this season

In today’s NBA it seems like the easiest way to get points is by driving to the hoop and drawing a foul or even better, earning an “and-one”. The Boston Celtics would benefit greatly by Jayson Tatum driving in more and getting potentially fouled to earn free throws.

In the off-season Tatum pledged to be a better offensive and defensive player for the Boston Celtics. He said he was going to score more points and to do so is by 3-pointers and getting to the free throw line more often.

The former third overall pick has one of the most unique body structures on the team.
