Boston — Four minutes into the first quarter, Boston star forward Jayson Tatum rolled his left ankle, giving Celtics supporters who stayed up late to watch the team play the Golden State Warriors a concern.
Even while Tatum made a comeback and participated in 41 minutes in Boston’s 132-126 overtime loss, the injury was obviously a handicap. Tatum, though, declined to let it be an alibi for his unsatisfactory shooting night.
“I’m not trying to justify myself, but after spraining your ankle, it swells up and becomes stiff. After the defeat, Tatum remarked, “It’s difficult to move; it just makes it harder.” “However, I was still outside, therefore I believe that if you play outside. You are unable to any excuses.
