Covid-19 leaves Jayson Tatum out of competition

Boston Celtics continues to accumulate casualties due to Covid-19. The last to fall is nothing less than Jayson Tatum, the great offensive prop of the team. The forward has entered the health and safety protocols established due to the pandemic, and there are already 9 Celtics players who are in said protocols.

Tatum is a Dennis Schröder, Josh Richardson, Enes Freedom, Bruno Fernando, Justin Jackson, Aaron Nesmith, C.J. Miles Y Grant Williams, although the latter is very close to return.

Last week the green team had 13 players out of the game due to the pandemic, although several of them have already returned to the game, as happened, among others, in the cases of Al Horford, Jabari Parker The Juancho Hernangómez.

Jayson Tatum played his last game on Christmas Day, the game Boston lost to the Milwaukee Bucks.

The Celtics’ star forward already tested positive for Covid-19 last season, and was not asymptomatic, although he suffered from a mild version of the disease.

Boston has lost 6 of its last 9 games and is ninth in the East, play-in spot, with a poor 16-17 record.
