NBA legend Vince Carter revealed why Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum is frustrating
This season, many around the NBA are expecting Boston Celtics superstar Jayson Tatum to have a massive chip on his shoulder. One of those with that expectation is former Grizzlies player and NBA legend Vince Carter.
After witnessing Tatum get disrespected throughout the playoffs and the Olympics, Carter believes that the Celtics star is going to come out with a vengeance. At the same time though, Carter has a certain level of frustration when it comes to Jayson Tatum - specifically, his passiveness. "One thing about Jayson Tatum, I think he's one of the top 10 or 15 players in the league, but it used to frustrate me when he would defer sometimes and just settle," Carter said on FanDuelTV's Run It Back show. "I don't think we're going to see that particularly early in the year. I don't think he's going to settle, I think he's going to go at guys to prove that I'm supposed to be that guy.
For as much as everyone is expecting the Boston Celtics to be a problem this NBA season, the Memphis Grizzlies also can't be slept on.
