Tatum: I will stay on the team most of the new season and want to show my teammates that I am working hard to recover

Celtics star Tatum was interviewed by Sports Illustrated reporter Chris Mannix, who said he planned to stay with the team for most of the new season to recover.

"I want to be with the team, of course, it will be difficult," Tatum said. "But I do think I should stay here, on the one hand, being a good teammate, on the other hand, keeping my mindset, I need to be in the team, making myself feel like a part of the team, and showing my teammates every day that I am doing everything I can to recover."
