Jayson Tatum has made a solid case for himself for Eastern Conference Player of the Month in February. If his 30.6 points and 7.6 rebounds per game on 49.7 percent shooting isn’t convincing enough, his career performance (41 points) against the Los Angeles Lakers and seven 30 point-plus games surely should be.
Boston Celtics big man Enes Kanter certainly believes his teammate should earn the honor, and made that perfectly clear Monday afternoon on Twitter.
And, naturally, he added a little humor to his tweet.
