In a year of high expectations, Jayson Tatum got started with a superstar moment in the Boston Celtics season opener.
Down two points with less than 10 seconds left, Tatum got the ball and faced down Milwaukee Bucks superstar (and reigning Defensive Player of the Year) Giannis Antetokounmpo. After some fancy dribbling, Tatum went for the stepback 3-pointer.
Fortunately, he did not have to call bank.
Tatum finished with a total of 30 points in the game on 12-of-28 shooting (6-of-13 from deep) with seven rebounds and two assists.
