One player who stands to benefit from the injury is Torrey Craig. Craig was signed in the middle of last season as some insurance and as a possible rotation piece. Craig didn't play meaningful minutes for most of the season, but that could change next season. With Tatum out, the Celtics are going to need help at the forward spot.

Jayson Tatum was named to his fourth straight All-NBA First Team on Friday, yet another impressive accomplishment for the 27-year-old Boston Celtics star.

A few days after Baylor Scheierman was drafted, he met Jayson Tatum at the Auerbach Center. “The first day I stepped foot into the practice facility, he was there signing his new contract,” Scheierman told CelticsBlog earlier this month.
