Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum is not fully healthy yet, but he is improving.
On Sunday, he played his second game since recovering from an Achilles injury he sustained during the Eastern Conference playoffs against the New York Knicks last season.
Tatum showed some signs of rust during the game at Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse in Cleveland, yet there were glimpses of his top performance.
