Speaking on TNT, Charles Barkley believes that Jayson Tatum should call this NBA star for guidance after tearing his Achilles.

A doctor is confident Jayson Tatum will be able to play at his superstar level when he returns to the Boston Celtics.

Tatum is expected to make a full recovery and no timetable was given for his return, but players who have suffered similar injuries are typically sidelined for nearly a season.

The Boston Celtics say star Jayson Tatum had surgery to repair a ruptured right Achilles tendon that will sideline him for the remainder of the playoffs.

Jayson Tatum was having a phenomenal game against the Knicks. The Celtics superstar got up to 42 points, eight rebounds, four assists, four steals, and two blocks before his night came to an abrupt end.

After Jayson Tatum's Achilles tear, the Boston Celtics could explore trying to land Cooper Flagg with a trade package headlined by Jaylen Brown.

While we don't know the type of injury yet, many are concerned it could be some time before he's back on the court.
