Players of the month | Jayson Tatum to reward Celtics dominance

More than ever at the top of the NBA, the Celtics see their leader Jayson Tatum be elected Player of the month to the East, while the monstrous Luka Doncic (Mavericks) is in the spotlight in the Western Conference.

On the one hand, Jayson Tatum is therefore taking advantage of Boston's incredible form, currently on a series of eleven straight victories and which continues to suffer one after another. At the head of the Celtic collective, the winger sent 27.2 points, 8.9 rebounds, 6.7 assists and 1.1 interceptions on average over ten games (nine victories), all at 48% on the shoot, 35% on 3-points and 89% on free throws.

As for Luka Doncic, the results are a little less brilliant with Dallas (eight wins in eleven games), but his statistics are even crazier: 33.4 points, 10.3 assists, 9.6 rebounds and 1.8 interceptions, at 52% shooting, 40% at 3-points and 79% on free throws!

If Jayson Tatum wins the “Player of the month” trophy for the fourth time in his career (and already the second time of the season), Luka Doncic wins for his side also for the fourth time (but for the first time since December 2022).
