Despite Jayson Tatum’s candid musings about joining a Celtics team that is already sitting near the top of the Eastern Conference, Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla said on 98.5 The Sports Hub’s “Zolak & Bertrand” Thursday that his star player’s approach hasn’t changed in recent weeks. “The mindset has been relatively consistent (and) where it has been the entire season,” Mazzulla said of Tatum’s approach. “We don’t know yet. It was never a yes, it was never a no. It was, ‘Let’s work as hard as you can, trusting the sports science team, trusting his development, whether it’s in the weight room, on the training table, and then put yourself in the best possible position to be as healthy as you can be, and then reevaluate it.'”
