Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum has entered the NBA’s health and safety protocols.

The Celtics now have nine players on the list, though 13 players entered the COVID-19 protocols last week.

Tatum tested positive for COVID-19 last season and detailed the lingering effects he had after he returned to action.

In his fifth season, Tatum leads Boston in both scoring (25.6 points per game) and rebounding (8.6 rebounds per game).

The Celtics have lost six of their last nine games and next play at Minnesota Timberwolves before a four-game homestand.
