Where does Jayson Tatum see himself finishing his NBA career among Boston Celtics greats? The star Celtics forward recently admitted he was trying to raise his game to the level of one of the greatest (in the eyes of meant, the greatest) player to wear the green and white in a recent postgame interview.
