To be mentioned in the same breath as Boston Celtics legend Bill Russell is a tremendous honor. The five-time MVP and 11-time NBA champion was the GOAT before that term existed. Current Celtics star Jayson Tatum won’t be able to match Russell’s resume — practically no one can. But, he can pass the basketball pioneer on the Green Team’s all-time scoring list.
After recording a game-high 24 points on Wednesday night during a 98-93 win over the Toronto Raptors, Tatum is now up to 14,421 points over the course of 10 regular seasons.
