Jayson Tatum added to Celtics injury report; two starters questionable against Hawks

Jayson Tatum was not spared from his altercation with Giannis Antetokounmpo.

The Celtics placed Tatum on their injury report on Monday, listing him as questionable for Tuesday night’s NBA Cup game against the Atlanta Hawks because of a left ankle sprain.

Tatum suffered the injury when he landed on Antetokounmpo’s foot during Sunday’s 113-107 win in Milwaukee. Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla found it “ridiculous” that the Bucks star was not held accountable for a foul in the game. Tatum also commented on Antetokounmpo’s dangerous bust, telling reporters, “There are certain calls you can’t miss.”

Tatum stayed in the game and finished with 31 points, 12 rebounds and six assists, scoring 23 of his points in the second half. He has appeared in all 11 contests for the Celtics this season and entered Monday as the NBA’s all-time leader in total points.
