Jayson Tatum is Back, but is he BACK Back | Concerns About Mitchell Robinson?

Jayson Tatum sparks MVP buzz as Boston Celtics dominate with offensive firepower. Has Tatum truly returned to superstar form, or are there more hurdles ahead? John Karalis of Celtics On SI breaks down Tatum’s electrifying stretch—33 points per game, aggressive drives, and a spike in free throw attempts—while raising questions about his physical and mental recovery after last season’s challenges.

The conversation with Tom Westerholm shifts to Mitchell Robinson and Neemias Queta, where concern levels around the Celtics’ big men are assessed. Missed alley-oops, early-season conditioning, and adapting to new roles are under the microscope, along with Joe Mazzulla’s influence on team culture. Can Robinson play himself into top shape? Will Queta’s lapses impact key moments as the schedule intensifies? Dive into this insightful analysis of Celtics strategy, player development, and what it all means for Boston’s championship aspirations.
