Congrats to Jayson Tatum on being named to his first NBA All-Star game

Error 0:

After Kemba Walker was voted in as a starting guard for the All-Star game, we waited a week to see if his teammates Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum would join him. Consensus was the Celtics would get a 2nd All-Star, but not a 3rd. When it came time today for the selections, the coaches went with Jayson Tatum. This is Tatum's first All-Star game appearance of what should be many to come. Congrats Jayson!

The 21 year old Tatum becomes the youngest Celtics player since Antoine Walker to make the All-Star team.
