The link in the statistics of the Playoffs 2022 is linking to 2018. "Change 2022 to 2022"

And one line below the link to the Boston Celtics season is referring to the 2017-18 season. "Change Boston to Boston" Zuebi (talk) 09:53, 28 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Awkward language

"Not ranked as high as other prospects underrated on draft boards,"

Shouldn't that be "were rated" rather than "underrated"?

I'll let you all make the correction. Thank you!

Add that Jayson Tatum is in a relationship with Ella Mai and that they are suspecting a child. Seems like important info to put in personal life. Bsteele2002 (talk) 22:28, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Jayson Tatum's Eastern Conference Finals MVP in 2022 was removed in the Career highlights and rewards tab

In the "NBA Achievements" section, specifically "Playoffs" tab, add that Jayson Tatum is one of two players since 1973-1974, alongside Lebron James, to lead all players in points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks for a playoff series. The evidence is an ESPN graphic shown after the accomplishment, it wasn't highly published. Link for evidence: https://imgur.com/Xvuw3Yy Bsteele2002 (talk) 07:17, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. If ESPN has an article with the same claim that would work, but we can't use a user-generated screenshot. Jamedeus (talk) 21:19, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
