YEAR 10 for Jayson Tatum. YEAR 17 for Paul George. YEAR 1 as Celtics teammates! https://t.co/ZmMCrJoQK6 Via @NBA on X

What happened: Jayson Tatum pairs with Paul George on Boston's wing for 2026-27. Tatum opens his 10th season while George opens his 17th.

Why it matters: The duo defines Boston's post-Jaylen Brown perimeter hierarchy after a nine-season pairing. Joint offseason work in Las Vegas provided an early fit checkpoint.

What to watch: Celtics camp will clarify roles and availability entering the preseason.
