Scores 34 in big bounceback game Tatum generated 34 points (11-22 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 7-9 FT), eight assists, four rebounds, two steals and a block over 40 minutes in Sunday's 128-124 win over the Trail Blazers.

Impact Tatum bounced back nicely from his rough Friday outing (2-18 FG) to lead Boston in scoring. And his eight assists were a career high. Tatum and Jaylen Brown carried the Celtics in a game in which Boston blew a 24-point lead but stormed back for the win. As Boston continues to restrict Kemba Walker's minutes (22 minutes on Sunday), the Celtics will look to Tatum, Brown and Gordon Hayward to up their production. Tatum and his teammates were hot from three -- Boston shot a blistering 60 percent from behind the arc. Next, Tatum and his teammates take on the Heat on Tuesday for a game that will have big seeding implications.

Poor showing in first Orlando game Tatum eked out five points (2-18 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, three assists, two steals and one block in Friday's 119-112 loss to the Bucks.

Impact Sadly, Tatum was actually 1-17, but was credited with a made shot early when the Bucks accidentally tipped a shot in for Boston. Guarding Giannis Antetokounmpo and leading the C's in shot attempts may have required too much effort from All-Star Tatum in the first regular-season game back from the sports stoppage. Heading into Friday, Tatum had been shooting 44.8 percent on the season, so one should expect a bounce-back game from the high-scoring forward Sunday versus the Trail Blazers. With Kemba Walker (knee) on a minutes restriction, look for Boston to continue to look to Tatum as its first option on offense.
