Jayson Tatum is having an impressive start to the 2024-25 season, averaging 29.9 points, 8.1 rebounds, 5.9 assists, and 1.4 steals per game while shooting 46.4% from the field and 39.4% from three-point range. His performance has sparked discussions about his MVP candidacy, as he consistently approaches triple-doubles. In a recent game against the Cleveland Cavaliers, Tatum scored 33 points, along with 12 rebounds and seven assists, contributing significantly to the Celtics' victory and their current three-game winning streak. He stands out as one of the few players leading his team in points, rebounds, and assists this season, alongside Nikola Jokic.
