What officials told Joe Mazzulla about P.J. Tucker’s hit on Jayson Tatum not being reviewed

With just over five minutes left in Monday’s Celtics-Sixers Game 1, Jayson Tatum was trailing the play on Malcolm Brogdon’s layup that put the Celtics up by two when P.J. Tucker swung his hand back and made contact with Tatum.

Tatum fell on the ground and rolled over in pain. Once he was able to get up, he stepped off the floor and into the tunnel for a brief break. He returned and finished the game.

The play was not reviewed by officials during Boston’s 119-115 loss to Philadelphia on Monday night.
