Tatum seem off to anyone since he came back in?

I noticed he has that left wrist wrapped. Wonder if he tweaked it.

Who needs a new backup center ?
Vonleh is looking pretty good so far. Love his hustle.
I am somewhat kidding, let's give this time, but at least he is an aggressive rebounder.
Also, I did not realize he was 6-10.

Loving Vonleh.  The boards, that spin move, the energy.

Like how Tatum gives more effort on the defensive end than players like Doncic, Harden, Young and often-times Lebron.

That could be an aspect. Also a lot less rest going into this season (Finals) vs his huge holiday at OKC last season. Another thing is he's the lone big most of the time.

Smart’s making some really nice plays.
