NBA, Jayson Tatum has lifted a big weight off his shoulders
Celtics outfielder è ready to play on Dream Team in Paris
Tatum è showed up at the Dream Team gathering with a new haircut and decidedly more relaxed. Winning his first NBA ring swept away, in one fell swoop, so many detractors, especially those who thought he was incapable of leading Boston to a title.
"I have always been at the center of so many debates or so many things…. 'Can heò lead a team?', 'Is he one of the top five players?'… There are still many aspects they can talk about but now I have done something that is not è in question: I won a title. Now they have to refer to me as one who è NBA Champion", his clear words reported by ESPN.
To make matters worse, Boston plans to keep winning. The Celtics retained 13 of the 15 players on its championship-winning roster, with Brissett and Mykhailiuk replaced by first-round NBA Draft pick Scheierman.
Tatum signed the richest contract in NBA history: $314 million for a five-year deal. Confirmation that Boston sees him as the franchise man, even more so now that he has won his first NBA ring. "I have nothing but love for the city, the fans and the whole organization. We just won a championship, I want to try to win as many as possible" his closing. First I will try to win the gold with the Dream Team at the Olympics.
