Disaster struck for the Boston Celtics when Jayson Tatum fell to the ground in agony during Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.<\/p>\n

The Celtics were already in trouble, as the New York Knicks had momentum in the game and control of the series, but it felt like things were finally shifting their way.<\/p>\n

Tatum\u2019s injury took the wind out of their sails, and they lost a lot of their mojo, falling earlier than expected in the playoffs.<\/p>\n

This certainly wasn\u2019t the result fans were expecting, especially since they won the title in the 2023-2024 season.<\/p>\n

After it was announced that Tatum would miss significant time in the upcoming campaign, fans and analysts immediately started talking about a rebuild, believing the team needed him to make any noise in the East.<\/p>\n

While that is likely true to a degree, the Celtics have acquired some serviceable players to help them build for the future.<\/p>\n

And, according to a recent report from reporter Steve Bulpett, the Celtics might not be without Tatum as long as initially expected.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cHe was in great shape and he had no trouble doing his part at the camp,\u201d Bulpett said, adding, \u201cI was kind of shocked to see how well he was moving.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The possibility of Jayson Tatum rejoining the Celtics late in the regular season has not been ruled out, per @SteveBHoop<\/a> <\/p>\n

Scouts say he\u2019s been moving \u2018really well\u2019 at CP3\u2019s camp.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m no doctor, but I\u2019ve seen guys coming back from Achilles\u2019 tears, and he looked way ahead. I was\u2026 pic.twitter.com\/h1tPElFGkJ<\/a><\/p>\n

These comments are about Chris Paul\u2019s basketball camp that Tatum attended.<\/p>\n

It seems that he\u2019s moving around well, and while his recovery is slated to take several more months, this is certainly a step in the right direction.<\/p>\n

If Tatum somehow comes back before the end of the regular season and can help his team make a push for the playoffs, it would be a remarkable comeback.<\/p>\n

Can his teammates stay relevant long enough and fight hard enough to have that opportunity?<\/p>\n
