Brad Stevens, the Celtics' president of basketball operations, spoke out recently with an update about both Tatum and Jaylen Brown. Of course, Brown underwent knee surgery after the season ended to repair a partially torn meniscus in his right knee.

Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum is recruiting Damian Lillard to join the franchise as an unrestricted free agent, according to The Boston Globe. Released earlier this summer by the Milwaukee Bucks, Lillard is reportedly open to signing this summer and the Celtics are one of three teams at the top of his potential list of suitors.
