SAN FRANCISCO — Jayson Tatum’s response to Golden State coverage in Game 1 was a career-high 13 assists.
The nature of the Celtics win considered, the Celtics star considers it appropriate that he had more assists than points (12). And he doesn’t sound particularly concerned about finding more room for his shot in Game 2 on Sunday.
“I feel like I made the right play more often than not. You know, it’s not much to overthink,” he said before Saturday’s practice at the Chase Center. “I feel like it’s a lot of shots, the open shots that I miss more often than not that I make. So it’s not something that I’m losing sleep over. You know, we won. That was most important, right. It’s the Finals. That’s all that matters.
