Tatum said that after he signed his extension Saturday, coach Joe Mazzulla couldn’t help himself.
“Joe was already trying to draw up shit for next season. I was like, ‘Joe, fuck that. We just won the championship.’”

Kansas’ AJ Storr was a tough iso cover at the Tatum Elite Camp.
Leveraged his strength to displace defenders and create separation w/ limited dribbles for rising midrange pull-ups.
Got where he wanted out of islands on the wing and the baseline mid-post. pic.twitter.com/zm4IUii6mi – 2:32 PM

More on this storyline
The Celtics and Tatum agreed to a five-year, $313.9 million contract extension this offseason. Tatum hopes this deal is another step to keeping him with the only NBA home he’s ever known. “For me just to feel wanted, and they want me to be here and want me for the long haul,” Tatum said. “I’ll spend my whole career here and have got nothing but love for the fans, the city, and the organization. You know, we just won a championship and I want to try to win as many as I can.” -via RealGM / July 9, 2024

Before the ink on Tatum’s massive contact had dried Saturday, Joe Mazzulla pulled him aside and shared a few thoughts. “Joe was already trying to draw up [expletive] for next season,” Tatum said, smiling. “I was like, ‘Joe, [expletive] that. We just won the championship, like, enjoy it and relax. We’re not worried about any sets that you’re trying to put in right now.’ We had a good laugh about it, because he’s just so driven, which we all are, but it’s like, man, we worked so hard for this, we’ve got to enjoy it.” -via Boston Globe / July 8, 2024
