Celtics' Jayson Tatum (health protocols) remains out Sunday
Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum will not play Sunday in the team's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
What It Means:
Tatum remains sidelined due to the NBA's health and safety protocols surrounding COVID-19, though the reports are that he's been cleared - his absence is now a result of conditioning after all the missed time. A return to the court for Tatum should be on the horizon, but for now, Grant Williams will remain in the starting five.
In 10 games this season, Tatum has averaged 26.9 points, 7.1 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 44.1 FanDuel points.
