Tatum is killing it with the catch and shoot tonight.
Keep doing that Jayson

Back to back offensive fouls on Jaylen. Decent handle on that break, just wasn't able to slip past the defender.

Got to say - Tatum looks confident and ready for a breakout year.

Nice +1 by Jayson. He's been impressive.

Tatum on fire. He must have 20 or so.

78-48 after three quarters

Kemba with 14 (??) Tatum with maybe 15? Not sure without having seen a box score

They just showed a graphic, Tatum has 17 on 6-8 shooting. He's looked like the best player on the floor.

I thought he was trying too hard to make something happen offensively. Him and a few others as well.

agreed,  he looked to be pressing a bit.  didn't help that he got a couple bad calls as well.
oh well, he will bounce back for sure.

He was bad in the 2017 Summer League too.

I agree he was bad, but he wasn't worse than Middleton, Young, or Barnes. I thought his defense was pretty good. Young and Barnes had decent defense as well, but offensively they were forgettable. Brown was more aggressive and hungry than his competition.

He was better than Kuzma too, even though most people will remember his dunk and three. Kuzma's defense was active, but pretty bad tonight.

It felt like he didn't have a comfort level picking his spots on offense with the guys he played with. You can tell that he and some other guys had trouble with the feel of the FIBA ball.

He did start, for whatever that's worth in a scrimmage.

Tatum was just assigned the ATT player of the game.
