We do not appreciate star Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum the way we should. Maybe you, dear reader, do not fit that statement faithfully, but NBA fans and even a fair amount of Celtics fans do not give the St. Louis native the level of respect that he deserves given the resume he has already assembled well ahead of his 30th birthday.
With an NBA title, six All-Star nods, a trio of All-NBA First Team elections, another to an All-NBA Third Team, and an NBA Eastern Conference Finals Most Valuable Player award just to name a few. With a Hall of Fame career already in the books, why is player being called things like 'corny,' or 'boring'?
The folks behind the "Sly Kai" YouTube channel put together a clip taking a deep dive into this reality. Take a look at the clip embedded below to hear what they had to say about why we don't appreciate JT the way we ought to.
