Brad Stevens Pulls a Fast One!…
Hold on to your high-tops, folks! Whilst the Indiana Pacers have put Tyrese Haliburton on the “see ya next season” bench due to a tango with an Achilles rupture, the Celtics’ big cheese, Brad Stevens, took a different spin. He’s playing it cooler than a full-court buzzer-beater, saying they’re not peeking at the calendar for Jayson Tatum’s return. It’s a timeline mystery wrapped in a sporting enigma! But rest those worried brows, basketball buffs—Stevens is all about keeping JT fit as a fiddle for the long haul, like a legendary slingshot prepping for a monumental comeback.
Tatum isn’t just bouncing back, he’s practically floating! Making splashes, literally, he shared a video last week of his poolside hustle with trainer and BFF, Nick Sang. It’s like a basketball superhero training montage, complete with underwater aerobics! Meanwhile, Jaylen Brown is nursing his knee like a mother hen with a remedy for victory and plans to hit the hardwood before training camps open. Stevens even quipped about the obscurity of seeing such star power roaming around the off-season gym, zipping and zapping shots early in the morning sun.
Rookie Hugo Gonzalez is spinning in his sneakers with delight! It’s a once-in-a-lifetime gig being around hoop titans like Tatum and Brown. He’s soaking up skills faster than a sponge in overtime! “They’re legends, flat-out legends, and learning from them is like drinking sweet victory lemonade,” beams Gonzalez. And as Tatum moves faster than a scooter on a skatepark ramp, the Celtics universe breathes deeply into its hopeful soul, waiting for the legendary comeback of Captain Tatum!
