Kevin Garnett on Jayson Tatum: ‘He keeps developing and he’s growing his game. He looks stronger this year, he’s playing through fouls, playing through a lot of contact. I would like him to be a little more consistent on the on the second and third effort. Sometimes when he done get fouls he’ll melt right there and kind of complain a little bit but I think at least for me when I watch Tatum, he’s learning how to take over games. Obviously he has a a bunch of talent around him so he doesn’t have to do too much but I think him and Jaylen Brown do a great job of being the head of the snake of that team. I love all the pieces that they have up there that has created this green buzzsaw and I think Tatum’s going to get even better. As he gets older he’s going to get smarter, I think his IQ is going to grow, he’s going to get better at playmaking, I see his handles has gotten a light tighter for him to go in and out and be able to go in and get fouls and stuff. I see the growth in his game, the growth in his confidence coming down, being able to put the nail in the coffin, or hit big threes. I see what he’s doing but I’m excited for his growth and what he’s going to be. I don’t think that we’re seeing the best of him yet and I think the best of him is yet to come.’ -via YouTube / February 22, 2025
