His three-point shot looks much better than it did last season, and a lot of NBA fans on social media are very excited.

Jack Simone: "Jayson Tatum saw a three go in, got the ball back the next possession, and now has a change for a four-point play.

Oh, and the Celtics are up by 20."

Rob Greene: "Didn’t think he’d miss that second opportunity in the corner, but Jayson Tatum has gotten going from three after a quick 0-3 start. What a shot that was from the top of the key, and JT got fouled."

Tatum shot just 28.3% from the three-point range during the 2024 NBA playoffs, which is why fans are so impressed with what they have seen so far.

The Celtics will play their first game of the 2024-25 regular season when they host Jalen Brunson and the New York Knicks on October 22 in Boston.

They are 2-0 in the preseason.
