Jayson Tatum on winning NBA championship: That felt like the weight of the world was off my shoulders
“It has been a crazy summer,” Jayson Tatum said, “Was fortunate enough to win my second gold medal with the national team. … And to finally win NBA championship, that’s something that I’ve been working (toward) for a very, very long time. I’ve gotten extremely close a few times, and finally got over the hump. So that was special. That felt like the weight of the world was off my shoulders after that one.”

Jayson Tatum and Jrue Holiday among those showing up at TD Garden to support the WNBA at the Sun-Sparks game is a rather baller move. – 9:08 PM

Let’s say you’re guaranteed perfect health for both players. You have an average roster otherwise, but it fits the player well.
Who would you rather have: Zion Williamson or Jayson Tatum? – 5:31 PM

More on this storyline
Jayson Tatum: “We had a hell of a team last year. It was so fun to be a part of that — the journey that we had, how we kind of dominated the regular season and went 16-3 in the playoffs. It looked like it was easy, but it wasn’t. It was hard. Played some really good teams. And it’s exciting to be able to run it back (in 2024-25). Same team coming back — we’re even more motivated to win another one.” -via stltoday.com / August 22, 2024
ClutchPoints: “From a basketball standpoint, how did the Olympic experience go?” Jayson Tatum: “It’s been a crazy summer. Fortunate enough to win my second Olympic gold medal on the national team. That was a hell of an experience.” 🙌 (via @stltoday , h/t @NoaDalzell ) -via Twitter / August 21, 2024
Jayson Tatum and Matthew Tkachuk are fresh off winning championships last season for their respective franchises. Months later, the former high school classmates reunited in St. Louis for an important task — re-creating a photo they took together growing up. The Boston Celtics and Florida Panthers stars were classmates at Chaminade Prep, a small Catholic school in St. Louis. Tkachuk even appeared in a video for Tatum’s class project. -via ESPN / August 19, 2024
