After losing in the NBA Finals last season, Boston Celtics superstar Jayson Tatum started off the new season on an MVP run and is often the best player on the court at all times. Tatum has finally taken the leap many people thought he wouldn’t be able to at this point in his career. And to that, I say he’s just entering his prime.

So far this season, Tatum’s gone through some of the best talent in the league during this early part of the year. We’ve seen him go through:

– Joel Embiid for 35

– Jimmy Butler for 29

– Paolo Banchero for 40

– Nikola Vucevic for 36

– Donovan Mitchell for 32

– Ja Morant for 39

– Nikola Jokic for 34

– All of DET for 43

– 27 for SGA

– 37 for Luka

– 30 for De’Aaron Fox

– All of CHA for 35

– 49 for Bam

The next player to make Tatum’s hit list will be Bradley Beal as the Celtics are hosting the Wizards tomorrow at 6:00 PM at the TD Garden.

Tatum hasn’t taken his foot off the gas pedal once this season and it’s put him as a front runner in any MVP conversation.
