There were understandable concerns surrounding Jayson Tatum’s form as he approached his return from an Achilles injury that kept him sidelined for almost a year.

However, after 16 regular season appearances and four playoff games, those doubts have quickly faded as the Celtics star continues to perform at his usual elite level.

His latest display against the Philadelphia 76ers only reinforced that point, as Boston secured a dominant 128-96 victory on Sunday night.

Following that result, Tatum reached a remarkable milestone, becoming the player with the most combined NBA wins in the regular season and playoffs since entering the league in 2017-18, according to Real App.

That achievement reflects both his individual consistency and his central role in Boston’s sustained success over multiple seasons.

The landmark came alongside another standout performance, with Tatum recording a double-double of 30 points and 11 assists.

He also contributed seven rebounds, while maintaining efficiency from long range with 50% shooting from three-point distance.

His influence was evident throughout, as the Celtics controlled the game and strengthened their position in the series.

Beyond that milestone, Tatum’s broader statistics highlight his standing across the league.

With 2,547 points, he leads all players in playoff scoring during the current decade, according to StatMuse, which reflects his consistency in high-pressure situations.

Within the franchise, he is also closing in on further history, now trailing only John Havlicek in games with at least 30 points and 10 assists in the playoffs.
