What will the impact of Jayson Tatum returning be for the Boston Celtics? The St. Louis native is nearing the end of his long rehab process for the Achilles tendon injury he sustained vs. the New York Knicks in the 2025 NBA Eastern Conference Semifinals, and speculation on how he will be integrated back into the ball club that has found uncanny success in his (and Al Horford, Jrue Holiday, Luke Kornet, and Kristaps Porzingis’) absence this campaign.

What should we expect from the Duke alum returning to the fold?
