He's back! Six-time All-Star Jayson Tatum is expected to make his season debut on Friday against the Dallas Mavericks, just 10 months after tearing his right Achilles, sources told ESPN's Shams Charania.
Tatum, who suffered the injury late in Game 4 of the Boston Celtics' second-round playoff series against the New York Knicks, will join a Celtics team that has far surpassed preseason expectations, and is No. 2 in a wide-open Eastern Conference with just weeks to go in the regular season.
