Celtics All-Star Jayson Tatum will practice with G-League team on path to return

  • Assigned to Maine Celtics on Monday, Tatum participated in practice and was immediately recalled to Boston, the team said.
  • Following mid‑May surgery, Tatum has progressed to controlled 5‑on‑5 scrimmaging, ESPN reporter Shams Charania reported recently.
  • Team officials stressed that Tatum has met thresholds, and the Celtics won't rush him, insisting he be '110% healthy' before returning, Stevens said Friday.
  • Recent roster moves and Tatum's practice participation could reshape the rotation, as the team has gone 34-18 without him this year, and Pritchard moved to the bench.
  • Looking toward the post‑break schedule, the earliest home dates are Feb. 27 and March 1, but medical experts caution this is a final rehab phase, not an imminent return.
