Jayson Tatum made Boston Celtics history on Saturday as he became the youngest player to score 10,000 points for the franchise, a landmark he reached during their 124-114 victory over the Brooklyn Nets.
“That’s special. That’s cool,” he said afterwards, according to the Celtics’ official website. “I’ve just been blessed to be in a great franchise. I’ve had some great teammates, some great coaches, that have contributed to helping me get 10,000 career points.” Starting the game 16 points shy of 10,000 career points, Tatum reached the landmark in the second quarter with a free throw after a spinning layup that had drawn a foul.
His coach Joe Mazzulla paid tribute to Tatum’s “open-mindedness” and work ethic afterwards as he celebrated his star player’s achievement. “He shows up to work every single day, he puts the work in, he dedicates his life to it, he doesn’t miss days, he doesn’t miss practices, games,” Mazzulla said, per the Celtics’ website. “And just his open-mindedness of wanting to be coached, and wanting to be held to a high standard … He’s one of the guys that sets the tone for us.
