What happened: Jayson Tatum has scored at least 23 points in each of his last four games, with a 40-point night against the Brooklyn Nets the high mark. He also put up 36 points against the New York Knicks and played the Chicago Bulls twice in the stretch.

Why it matters: The 40-point game came with 5 rebounds and 8 assists, and he has reached at least 5 rebounds and 6 assists in every game of the run. His two lines against Chicago, 23 points and 26 points, were the quietest of the four.

By the numbers: Last four games: 36 PTS, 9 REB, 7 AST vs. Knicks; 23 PTS, 7 REB, 6 AST vs. Bulls; 40 PTS, 5 REB, 8 AST vs. Nets; 26 PTS, 7 REB, 7 AST vs. Bulls.

What to watch: Boston and Chicago are still playing, so Tatum's latest line against the Bulls can change before the game ends.
