All eyes will be on Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum as the team quickly approaches the All-Star break. Tatum has reportedly been participating in controlled 5-on-5 scrimmages with coaches, according to ESPN's Shams Charania.

Tatum is still recovering from rupturing his Achilles tendon last May during last season's series with the New York Knicks. All options are on the table for the 27-year-old. On January 29, NBA insider Chris Haynes reported that Tatum is considering sitting for the entire 2025-2026 season.

Charania reported that Tatum wants to come back as close to 100 percent as possible.
