Almost like clockwork, Boston Celtics star forward Jayson Tatum turns on absolute beast mode after the annual All-Star game is firmly in the rearview mirror, and this season is certainly no exception with the St. Louis native putting up his second game scoring over 40 points in a row against the Charlotte Hornets Wednesday night on the road, having dropped 54 points vs. the Brooklyn Nets two days prior.
Tatum put up an almost as impressive 44 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 steals, and a block in 38 minutes of playing time, shooting an absurd 16-of-24 from the field, 6-of-9 from 3-point range, and a perfect 6-of-6 from the free-throw line.
