Despite his individual accomplishments and the possibility of even larger wages, Tatum’s major focus is on team

success rather than personal honors. He has stated his resolve to seeking a championship with the Celtics, valuing

team accomplishments over individual accolades such as MVP.

Jaylen Brown, Tatum’s teammate, established the precedent in July when he signed a five-year, $304 million super-

max agreement with the Celtics. With Tatum eligible for an even larger contract, the Celtics have locked in their core

players for the foreseeable future, signaling their intent to create a championship contender around their dynamic

combo.

future in Boston appears brighter than ever.

As the Boston Celtics enter the final stretch of the season with the #1 seed secured and high expectations for a title,

the emphasis naturally falls on its two cornerstone players, Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown. Head coach Joe

Mazzulla recently revealed his thoughts on Tatum’s pressure, particularly in terms of winning a title.

Mazzulla acknowledged the weight of expectations that come with being a major player on a championship-caliber

team, referring to it as a responsibility that Tatum must bear. While acknowledging that some of the criticism

directed at Tatum may be unwarranted, Mazzulla stressed the unavoidability of pressure in professional sports,

particularly for young stars like Tatum and Brown who have had early success in their careers.
