Former Celtic Jeff Teague says he warned Jayson Tatum about Tyrese Halliburton
The NBA’s new in-season tournament (IST) exceeded expectations among fans and analysts of the game, providing entertaining basketball to fans of the Boston Celtics and the rest of the league in November and December, even if it ended poorly for fans of the Celtics at the hands of Indiana Pacers star point guard Tyrese Halliburton and Co. in Monday’s IST quarterfinals road loss to the Pacers.
Speaking on a recent episode of his “Club 520” podcast, former Celtics floor general Jeff Teague revealed he had tried to tell star Boston forward Jayson Tatum abut how deadly Hali can be with his Pacers. Teague also shared how he was impressed by the quality of basketball in the IST, saying it felt like the playoffs — quite an achievement so early in the season.
Take a look at the clip embedded below to hear what Teague had to say about the Celtics-Pacers tilt, the IST, and more.
