The Celtics don't appear to be building the type of team that would warrant rushing Jayson Tatum back.
Unless appearances are overwhelmingly deceiving, the Boston Celtics are preparing for a season without Jayson Tatum. Tatum's remarkable recovery process from the torn Achilles tendon he suffered in May has made headlines, but Boston's moves have indicated that patience is still key.
The Celtics haven't fielded a championship-caliber roster up to this point and it thus remains unlikely that they would bring Tatum back without the sincere belief that they can instantly contend.
