Impact Tatum's 10 rebounds helped to pad a tepid scoring total in Wednesday's win. Tatum only completed 27.7 percent of his shots and managed just one three-pointer in eight attempts. It's still yet to be determined if the Celtics will rest Tatum for the second half of a back-to-back Thursday, limit his minutes or give him his usual heavy workload.

Solid production in blowout win Tatum contributed 22 points (9-17 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-6 FT), six rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals across 29 minutes during Sunday's 144-102 win over the Wizards.

Impact Tatum came into the contest as a game-time decision due to knee soreness, but he was officially listed as probable and never appeared in danger of sitting out. Since the beginning of March (15 appearances), the All-Star forward has averaged 32.0 points, 6.5 rebounds and 5.1 assists in 36.5 minutes per game. The Celtics are 13-2 during that stretch, though they did lose a March 28 contest to the Raptors when Tatum was sidelined due to the lingering knee issue. While the knee problems don't appear to be a serious issue, Boston head coach Ime Udoka said before Sunday's win that he'd like to find Tatum a day off or limit him to around 20 minutes during a game before the conclusion of the regular season just to make sure the knee won't bother him during the playoffs, per Keith Smith of Spotrac.com.
