Stevens said Tatum will return to the top, it seems that the Celtics will take action

Everyone knows that Achilles tendon injury can be called an athlete killer. Throughout the history of the NBA, there is really no player who can return to the top after a rupture of the Achilles tendon. Some people will definitely say that Durant has returned to the peak? To be honest, Durant also fell a lot after his Achilles tendon tear. Durant's previous speed was extremely disguised and could change direction twice. After returning from injury, he could not do one. The latter was based on his abnormal and accurate projection ability, and he lost a lot of weight and his defense was poor against each other. At least the horizontal movement was really slower. On June 3, the Celtics updated the latest injury to Tatum. He said that Achilles tendon repair experts said that there is no reason for a ruptured Achilles tendon to prevent Tatum from returning better than before.

Not only that, President Stevens also said in an interview: "Positiveness is the best aspect. We are only 15 minutes away from Dr. O'Malley. After Tatum was injured, we sent him to the hospital as soon as possible. After MRI and the Achilles tendon injury, we had the surgery as soon as possible. Dr. O'Malley is a very outstanding orthopedic expert. He has done many such surgeries, such as Kobe and Durant. The advantages of early surgery are reflected. Although it is very difficult that night, a series of The operation is a miracle. So, we all believe he will come back. "The past few years we have learned that extremely early activities and rehabilitation will accelerate healing, which will not delay healing, nor will it damage the repair effect. Therefore, after an injury, the faster the surgery, the earlier the repair, the better the effect, and the faster the recovery. "

This Stone still has some influence in ligaments and cartilage tissue, but there is no doubt that this is definitely the operation of the Celtics behind it, otherwise the doctor would not come forward to talk about this matter by himself. The intention is also very obvious, just to tell everyone that Tatum's surgery is very successful, which will not affect his future career and will return to the peak.

Some fans said that the Celtics are really "no silver here, three hundred taels", obviously this is a move, is it necessary to try to trade Tatum? But it should be very difficult. Durant used to have a ruptured Achilles tendon and rested for 180 days and was directly reimbursed for one and a half seasons, but the Nets refused to give up. Not only did they wait for Durant to die, but they also gave him a new contract.

But will Tatum have Durant's treatment back then? The answer is definitely no. First, because Tatum’s salary is too high, with 316 million yuan in five years, and it will take effect in the 2025-26 season. Which team will pay for it for nothing? Second, although Tatum won the championship, it was still a little worse than Durant back then. Durant was in the peak of the Warriors, with all kinds of singles, two FMVP winners, while Tatum only had one championship, and Brown was the FMVP.

As for medical experts, Tatum will return to the top, but I guess no one believes it? A tear of Achilles tendon is really a nightmare for athletes. Whether they can return to the top can only wait until Tatum returns before there is an answer.

The Celtics will definitely adjust their lineup during the offseason. According to relevant reports, if the lineup remains unchanged, the Celtics expect total salary to be US$225 million in the 2025-26 season, the luxury tax threshold is US$187.9 million, and the tax penalty is expected to be US$210 million. So, salary plus luxury tax is about $435 million.

Tatum will be reimbursed next season. Brown doesn’t know how, and it’s almost impossible to win the championship, so there will definitely be a deal, it depends on who will be the first to take action!
