The Celtics gave Jayson Tatum the biggest contract in NBA history!

According to an exclusive report from The US Update, Jayson Tatum has made history by winning the first NBA title of his career. An exclusive report from The US Update reveals that the Boston Celtics have signed Jayson Tatum to a 5-year contract worth around $314 million, the greatest contract in NBA history for a player on a supermax extension.

Jayson Tatum’s Championship Performance

The 26-year-old star played a key role in leading the Celtics to a five-game win over the Dallas Mavericks, the franchise’s first championship since 2008. During the series, Jayson Tatum averaged 22.2 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 7.2 assists, although the Finals MVP went to his All-Star counterpart, Jaylen Brown.

Jayson Tatum’s Career and Achievements

For your information, Jaylen Brown received his record extension from the Celtics just last year, and since they put up a lot of good performances together in Beantown, the franchise felt it was the best decision to give an extension to Jayson Tatum, as he is one of the best wings in the NBA today. The five-time All-Star and four-time All-NBA selection has been on a roll ever since he was drafted third overall from Duke by the Celtics in 2017.

Tatum has played in 513 games in his career, averaging 23.1 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 3.5 assists per game with a 46% field goal rate. He has finished in the top 6 in MVP voting in each of the past three seasons and is a perennial All-Star candidate as long as he stays healthy on the hardwood.

Celtics’ Strategic Moves

The Celtics agreed to terms with Tatum and also with Derrick White, a versatile guard who averaged 15.2 points last season and shot a career-high 39.6% from three-point territory to lead the Boston Celtics to victory.
