On Saturday night during All-Star weekend, Jayson Tatum will serve as a TNT commentator.
Jayson Tatum will start for the Eastern Conference on Sunday night in Indianapolis, Indiana, for the fourth year in a row. However, Richard Deitsch of The Athletic reports that the five-time All-Star would make his TNT Sports Analyst debut the previous evening, co-hosting an alternate Saturday program with Vince Carter, Carmelo Anthony, and Adam Lefkoe.
The famous Celtics player will call the 3-Point Contest. It’s anticipated that he will play the same position in the Stephen Curry vs. Sabrina Ionescu 3-Point Challenge. Tatum, who turns 26 in March, may be making his first of many analyst appearances on Saturday night.
And don’t be shocked if Jaylen Brown includes him in one of his efforts during the Slam Dunk Contest once he exits the booth after the three-point shootouts are over.
