50 Jayson Tatum-inspired Fantasy Basketball team names to try out in 2023-24 NBA season

May 2024 · 5 minute read

Jayson Tatum is coming off the best season of his career, cementing himself as one of the best players in the NBA today. Tatum led the Boston Celtics to just one win away from another NBA finals appearance but came up short against the Miami Heat.

The 25-year-old superstar was also one of the top fantasy basketball players last year, averaging 30.1 points, 8.8 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 1.1 steals per game, making 3.2 3-point shots, shooting 46.6% from the field and 85.4% from the free-throw line.

Tatum enters the new season as a consensus Top 10 player in fantasy basketball. It's also not shocking if he'll get selected in the Top 5 as well. Nikola Jokic of the Denver Nuggets remains the best fantasy basketball player on the planet, while Tatum, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Joel Embiid, Luka Doncic and Tyrese Haliburton are in the next tier.

Jayson Tatum is expected to remain one of the best players in NBA, as well as in fantasy this season. It's despite the addition of Kristaps Porzingis and Jrue Holiday in an offseason overhaul.

Porzingis could cut into Tatum's touches, while Holiday could get most of the playmaking duties. However, it's not difficult to see the St. Louis native being a steady contributor across the board.
