Lately, Jayson Tatum [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jayson_Tatum] is reminiscing his rookie days. It’s not been long since he started playing for the Boston Celtics. After being drafted in 2017 by the Celtics, he is now a strong power forward for the team. On remembering his favorite rookie moments, he shares a hilarious incident with Trail Blazer’s star Carmelo Anthony [http://www.essentiallysports.com/nba-news-kobe-bryant-considered-carmelo-anthony-as-tougher-opponent-than-lebron-james/]. In his NBA debut against Cavaliers, Jayson Tatum set his presence when he recorded a double-double with 14 points and10 rebounds. Celtics proceeded to lose the match by a 102-99. He stole the attention of many and was named as the ‘Eastern Conference’s Rookie of the Month’ for December 2017. With the end of the 2017 playoff run, he was named the only rookie in playoff history to record 10 games of 20 or more points scored during his first playoff run. He made his place alongside Kareem Abdul Jabbar in NBA history. Tatum added to his skills and his game and tread faster in his years in the NBA. He was part of the ‘NBA All-Rookie First Team’ of 2018 as well. It seems like he might as well have a lot to reminisce about his years of being a rookie! WHAT WAS JAYSON TATUM’S ROOKIE MOMENT? Recently, Jayson nostalgically talked about playing against those he looked up to before coming in NBA. Trail Blazer’s Carmelo Anthony is one of those greats. He tried to become like him while growing up and copy his style of playing. Carmelo is a strong power forward for the team and his playing style has its own technicalities. Carmelo Anthony and 'little brother' Jayson Tatum share mutual ...

Free throw line Melo said wassup to me lol I was geeked.” – Jayson Tatum on his favorite rookie moment It was truly a fan moment for Tatum and it couldn’t have been more intriguing honestly! Your role model is right in front of you and nobody would expect that. It’s hilarious how he mentioned it though. But definitely their dynamics are quite different now. The duo has a respectable space between them. There is a reason to remember this incident for a lifetime and cherish it as a fan more than a player. 

Jayson Tatum, Boston Celtics power forward is remembering old times as a rookie.
He seems to be excited about a particluar one though.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Boston Celtics 2022: News, Schedule, Roster, Score, Injury Report</h2>
The Boston Celtics are the most decorated team in the NBA. They are owned by Wyc Grousbeck, under his group 'Boston Basketball Partners'. Grousbeck is also the governor of the Celtics, while Rich Gotham serves as the president of the franchise. 

<img class="size-full wp-image-375226 aligncenter" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20200913213905/4307697.png" alt="" width="2000" height="2000" />

The Boston Celtics were founded in 1946 as one of the association’s initial eight teams. They are statistically the most successful team in the league’s history. The Celtics have won the most NBA championships (17) and the <a href="https://www.statmuse.com/nba/ask/which-team-with-most-wins-in-nba-history" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">most number of games</a> in NBA history to date. Moreover, they are a part of the NBA’s Atlantic Division in the Eastern Conference.

The TD Garden is the current home arena of the Celtics. The team moved here in 1995 from the iconic Boston Garden, which has now been demolished. Their modern logo has their mascot “<a href="https://twitter.com/celticslucky18?lang=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Lucky the Leprechaun</a>” spinning a basketball on one hand and holding a cane in the other. 
<h2 style="text-align: center">History</h2>
A large part of the Celtics’ success came in the 1960s, when they were led by the fearless Bill Russell. Standing at a towering height, just shy of seven feet, Russell is regarded as one of the greatest centers to have graced the league. The Hall of Famer won eleven titles with the Celtics, marking him as their most important player in history.

Bill Russell was meticulously scouted and picked by legendary Celtics coach Red Auerbach, in 1956. Russell’s trade on draft day is one of the most significant moments in the league’s glorious history. Following Russell’s retirement, the Celtics shortly found a new player to fill in his mighty shoes.

The Celtics saw tremendous success in the Larry Bird era, winning three titles to broaden their legacy. Bird guided Boston to four straight Finals and won the league MVP award for three straight years from 1984 to 1986. After his retirement, the franchise experienced a slump where they failed to qualify for the playoffs for six straight years.

Boston last won the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/" rel="noopener noreferrer">NBA</a> championship in the 2007/08 season. They boasted a super-team in the league with the likes of Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, and Ray Allen.

<h2>History of Celtics throughout the years</h2>
In 1946, the Boston Celtics was one of the founding teams in the Basketball Association of America (BAA). They encountered a number of difficulties in grabbing the city's interest, as baseball and hockey dominated it. However, in their first home game in 1946, Chuck Connors, afterward known as "The Rifleman," broke a backboard with a slam dunk, generating excitement. In 1949/50, the BAA developed into the National Basketball Association (NBA). With the hire of great coach Arnold "Red" Auerbach in 1950, the Celtics went on a historic journey, launching their illustrious sports heritage.
<h2>1950s to 1990s</h2>
From the 1950s to the 1990s, the Boston Celtics' history is one of NBA domination, memorable rivalries, and great players. It all started in the late 1950s, when coach Red Auerbach arranged for the acquisition of the renowned Bill Russell in 1956. Russell, along with other talents such as Bob Cousy, led the Celtics to their first NBA title in 1957. This signalled the start of an unprecedented period of success. Russell helped the Celtics become a dynasty, winning eight straight NBA championships from 1959 through 1966. A tremendous supporting cast of future Hall of Famers, including John Havlicek, Tom Heinsohn, K. C. Jones, Sam Jones, Satch Sanders, and Bill Sharman, helped to cement the team's history.

Following Russell's retirement in 1969, the Celtics went through a rebuilding phase before making a comeback in the mid-1970s. They won titles in 1974 and 1976 under the leadership of talents such as Dave Cowens, John Havlicek, and Jo Jo White. The Celtics recovered their dominance in the 1980s, reigniting their rivalry with the Los Angeles Lakers, led by Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. The Celtics' "Big Three" of Larry Bird, Kevin McHale, and Robert Parish won titles in 1981, 1984, and 1986. Their dramatic clashes with the Lakers, including a spectacular victory in the 1984 Finals, are in the annals of NBA history.

The Celtics-Lakers rivalry, with Larry Bird and Magic Johnson at the helm, became one of sports' most memorable rivalries. The two teams met in the NBA Finals a record 12 times, with the Celtics winning nine of those meetings. Furthermore, the Celtics have produced four NBA Most Valuable Players (MVPs), for a total of ten MVP trophies, solidifying their position as an NBA superpower. The nickname "Celtics," as well as the mascot "Lucky the Leprechaun," pay reference to Boston's rich Irish heritage and the Original Celtics, a notable team prior to the NBA. From the 1950s to the 1990s, the Boston Celtics' history is one of excellence, famous players, and unforgettable rivalries that have left an everlasting stamp on the NBA.

From the 1990s to 2013, the Boston Celtics had a rollercoaster journey filled with highs and lows, famous players, and huge transformations. The Celtics suffered a shift in the early 1990s, as important players including as Larry Bird, Kevin McHale, and Robert Parish retired or moved on, signaling the end of the original "Big Three" era. The squad experienced difficulties, and Reggie Lewis, a bright young star, tragically died as a result of heart problems, complicating matters even further. The Celtics hired M. L. Carr as vice president of basketball operations in the mid-1990s while they went through a rebuilding phase. In 1995, the team relocated from the Boston Garden to the Fleet Center (later TD Garden) and struggled to make the playoffs.

Rick Pitino was named president, director of basketball operations, and head coach of the team in 1997, bringing with him tremendous expectations. The Celtics drafted young players such as Chauncey Billups and Ron Mercer, but despite their efforts, the team was unable to achieve the required level of success. A combination of seasoned veterans and hopeful newcomers characterized the late 1990s and early 2000s. Notably, Paul Pierce was drafted in 1998 and immediately showed potential, but the Celtics failed under Pitino's direction. With Pitino's retirement, Jim O'Brien took over as coach, and the team improved slightly. Although Paul Pierce developed into an NBA superstar, the Celtics still faced obstacles to success.

When the team recruited Danny Ainge as general manager, he oversaw the formation of a new "Big Three" consisting of Pierce, Ray Allen, and Kevin Garnett. The 2007-08 season featured a spectacular turnaround, with the squad improving by 42 games over the previous season. The Celtics went on to win their 17th NBA championship in 2008, reigniting their glory days. The next seasons witnessed a mix of success, playoff appearances, and Rajon Rondo's rise as a standout player. The departure of important players like Ray Allen, as well as subsequent injuries, tested the Celtics' stability, but the club remained competitive.
<h2>2013 to present</h2>
From 2013 until the present, the Boston Celtics have gone through considerable changes and endured numerous hardships, all while being a competitive NBA organization. The Celtics shifted from the "Big Three" era to Brad Stevens as head coach in 2013, prioritizing player development and laying a solid basis for the future. The franchise launched a youth movement by dealing established players such as Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett to the Brooklyn Nets in exchange for future draft picks and new talent. Brad Stevens took over as head coach, emphasizing player development and bringing in talented players like Marcus Smart, Jaylen Brown, and Jayson Tatum. The new "Big Three" lineup included Irving, Horford, and Tatum.

The Celtics made the playoffs in 2017-18, finishing as the top seed in the Eastern Conference. However, they were defeated in the Eastern Conference Finals by the Cleveland Cavaliers, therefore ruining their title chances. The Celtics endured injuries and performance swings in the following seasons. Brad Stevens will take over as President of Basketball Operations in 2021, succeeding Danny Ainge, who is retiring. He oversaw a number of roster changes, including the acquisition of Al Horford and the selection of new players.

The Celtics reached the NBA Finals for the first time since 2010, but were defeated in six games by the Golden State Warriors. To form their roster, the team made numerous major transactions, including trading Marcus Smart to the Memphis Grizzlies and obtaining Kristaps Porzingis. The Celtics are competitive in the Eastern Conference as of 2023, thanks to a mix of young talent, seasoned veterans, and a new front staff under Brad Stevens.

Boston Celtics 2023

The Boston Celtics, founded in 1946 as one of the NBA&#8217;s original clubs, have a long and illustrious basketball history. They are a formidable power in the league, participating in the Atlantic Division of the Eastern Conference and based in Boston. The Celtics play their home games in the TD Garden, which they share with the NHL&#8217;s Boston Bruins. Their illustrious history is highlighted by 17 NBA titles, a number shared only with their archrivals, the Los Angeles Lakers. The Celtics are an enduring force in the world of professional basketball, with the most wins in NBA history.

They encountered a number of difficulties in grabbing the city&#8217;s interest, as baseball and hockey dominated it. However, in their first home game in 1946, Chuck Connors, afterward known as &#8220;The Rifleman,&#8221; broke a backboard with a slam dunk, generating excitement. In 1949/50, the BAA developed into the National Basketball Association (NBA). With the hire of great coach Arnold &#8220;Red&#8221; Auerbach in 1950, the Celtics went on a historic journey, launching their illustrious sports heritage. 1950s to 1990s From the 1950s to the 1990s, the Boston Celtics&#8217; history is one of NBA domination, memorable rivalries, and great players. It all started in the late 1950s, when coach Red Auerbach arranged for the acquisition of the renowned Bill Russell in 1956. Russell, along with other talents such as Bob Cousy, led the Celtics to their first NBA title in 1957. This signalled the start of an unprecedented period of success. Russell helped the Celtics become a dynasty, winning eight straight NBA championships from 1959 through 1966. A tremendous supporting cast of future Hall of Famers, including John Havlicek, Tom Heinsohn, K. C. Jones, Sam Jones, Satch Sanders, and Bill Sharman, helped to cement the team&#8217;s history. Following Russell&#8217;s retirement in 1969, the Celtics went through a rebuilding phase before making a comeback in the mid-1970s. They won titles in 1974 and 1976 under the leadership of talents such as Dave Cowens, John Havlicek, and Jo Jo White. The Celtics recovered their dominance in the 1980s, reigniting their rivalry with the Los Angeles Lakers, led by Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. The Celtics&#8217; &#8220;Big Three&#8221; of Larry Bird, Kevin McHale, and Robert Parish won titles in 1981, 1984, and 1986. Their dramatic clashes with the Lakers, including a spectacular victory in the 1984 Finals, are in the annals of NBA history. The Celtics-Lakers rivalry, with Larry Bird and Magic Johnson at the helm, became one of sports&#8217; most memorable rivalries. The two teams met in the NBA Finals a record 12 times, with the Celtics winning nine of those meetings. Furthermore, the Celtics have produced four NBA Most Valuable Players (MVPs), for a total of ten MVP trophies, solidifying their position as an NBA superpower. The nickname &#8220;Celtics,&#8221; as well as the mascot &#8220;Lucky the Leprechaun,&#8221; pay reference to Boston&#8217;s rich Irish heritage and the Original Celtics, a notable team prior to the NBA. From the 1950s to the 1990s, the Boston Celtics&#8217; history is one of excellence, famous players, and unforgettable rivalries that have left an everlasting stamp on the NBA.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Carmelo Anthony 2021: Net worth, Salary, and Endorsements</h2>
Carmelo Anthony is a six-foot-seven forward who plays for the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA. He was born on May 29, 1984, to Mary Anthony and Carmelo Iriarte. Anthony was the third overall pick in the 2003 NBA draft. 

[caption id="attachment_453508" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="size-full wp-image-453508" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/GettyImages-1193643233.jpg" alt="Carmelo Anthony during a game against the Denver Nuggets" width="1920" height="1280" /> DENVER, CO - DECEMBER 12: Carmelo Anthony (00) of the Portland Trail Blazers backs down Will Barton (5) of the Denver Nuggets during the second quarter on Thursday, December 12, 2019.

Anthony’s parents moved to Baltimore before his teenage years, which allowed him to gain more exposure in basketball. He attended two different high schools, one being the Towson Catholic where he played for three years. 

The Brooklyn native reached a tremendous height by his junior year and attracted several scouts with his impeccable talent. Anthony’s mother transferred him to Oak Hill Academy in Virginia for his senior year. 

After getting off to a 67-0 win streak with Oak Hill, Anthony finally faced defeat against a <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/lebron-james/">LeBron James</a>-led St. Vincent-St. Mary high-school. The Oak Hill forward was one of the top-rated recruits coming out of high-school and had the option to forego college and join the NBA.

Despite being eligible to enter the league, Carmelo Anthony decided to attend one year at Syracuse for more experience. The Syracuse Orange went on to win the NCAA championship in Anthony’s freshman season, and he averaged 22.2 points during the championship run. 

As for his personal life, Carmelo Anthony got engaged to La La Anthony in 2004. The couple tied the knot in 2010, three years after the birth of their son Kiyan. 

Their relationship suffered rocky instances late in the 2010s and both parties mutually agreed for a divorce, but La La and Melo seem to be back together for good.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Carmelo Anthony NBA Career</h2>
Anthony initially wanted to play at Syracuse for a longer period, but felt the need to leave after winning the championship as a freshman. He set out on a new endeavor, and the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/denver-nuggets/">Denver Nuggets</a> used their third overall pick to select Melo in the 2003 NBA Draft. 

He made his debut against the San Antonio Spurs and averaged an impressive 21.0 points per game as a rookie. Anthony finished second in the Rookie of the Year voting behind LeBron James and replicated similar form in the subsequent seasons as well. 

He played with the Nuggets for eight years and registered several iconic moments with them. He reached his prime during the late 2000s and notched up 30 point games for fun. After posting incredible numbers in Denver and averaged 24.8 PPG in eight seasons, Anthony was then traded to the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/new-york-knicks/">New York Knicks</a> in 2011.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Trouble with the Knicks and career resurrection </h2>
Melo to the Knicks was a dreamy move, and fans in New York went crazy about him joining their franchise. He had developed as one of the league’s best players by that time, but collective success was hard to come by for the team. 

Melo averaged 24.7 points and 2.4 blocks per game in seven seasons with the Knicks and had a fallout with Phil Jackson, who the President of the franchise at that period. Jackson wasn’t keen on keeping Anthony as he felt the forward didn’t fit well in his offensive plans. 

Thus, Anthony was consequently sent to <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/oklahoma-city-thunder/">OKC</a> when he played for a year. Melo’s career took a sharp downward spike after his Knicks exit, and the 'superstar' status soon left his name after a dip in scoring averages. 

He then joined the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/houston-rockets/">Houston Rockets</a> after one year in Oklahoma, a move that put a dark dent in Melo’s career. He just played ten games for the Rockets as the team snubbed him without releasing his contract.

The Rockets then traded Melo to the Blazers in 2019, where he found a beam of shining light once again. 

Though age caught up, Melo was able to perform at a challenging level in Portland. His veteran experience proved to be the perfect match for the team’s young core. 

After acting as the spark plug off of the bench, the Trail Blazers were not willing to take back the veteran forward to the team. But Melo had a special team waiting for him in the off-season, close friend LeBron James' Lakers.

The Purple and Gold who have been on a roll of signing veterans, brought up Melo as they needed shooting in their team. Given that the 2021-22 season will be the first time LBJ and Melo will play with each other, fans simply can't wait to see the duo this season.

Carmelo Anthony

Carmelo Anthony 2021: Net worth, Salary, and Endorsements Carmelo Anthony is a six-foot-seven forward who plays for the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA. He was born on May 29, 1984, to Mary Anthony and Carmelo Iriarte. Anthony was the third overall pick in the 2003 NBA draft.  DENVER, CO &#8211; DECEMBER 12: Carmelo Anthony (00) of the Portland Trail Blazers backs down Will Barton (5) of the Denver Nuggets during the second quarter on Thursday, December 12, 2019. (Photo by AAron Ontiveroz/MediaNews Group/The Denver Post via Getty Images) Anthony’s parents moved to Baltimore before his teenage years, which allowed him to gain more exposure in basketball. He attended two different high schools, one being the Towson Catholic where he played for three years.  The Brooklyn native reached a tremendous height by his junior year and attracted several scouts with his impeccable talent. Anthony’s mother transferred him to Oak Hill Academy in Virginia for his senior year.  After getting off to a 67-0 win streak with Oak Hill, Anthony finally faced defeat against a LeBron James-led St. Vincent-St. Mary high-school. The Oak Hill forward was one of the top-rated recruits coming out of high-school and had the option to forego college and join the NBA. Despite being eligible to enter the league, Carmelo Anthony decided to attend one year at Syracuse for more experience. The Syracuse Orange went on to win the NCAA championship in Anthony’s freshman season, and he averaged 22.2 points during the championship run.  As for his personal life, Carmelo Anthony got engaged to La La Anthony in 2004. The couple tied the knot in 2010, three years after the birth of their son Kiyan.  Their relationship suffered rocky instances late in the 2010s and both parties mutually agreed for a divorce, but La La and Melo seem to be back together for good. Carmelo Anthony NBA Career Anthony initially wanted to play at Syracuse for a longer period, but felt the need to leave after winning the championship as a freshman. He set out on a new endeavor, and the Denver Nuggets used their third overall pick to select Melo in the 2003 NBA Draft.  He made his debut against the San Antonio Spurs and averaged an impressive 21.0 points per game as a rookie. Anthony finished second in the Rookie of the Year voting behind LeBron James and replicated similar form in the subsequent seasons as well.  He played with the Nuggets for eight years and registered several iconic moments with them. He reached his prime during the late 2000s and notched up 30 point games for fun. After posting incredible numbers in Denver and averaged 24.8 PPG in eight seasons, Anthony was then traded to the New York Knicks in 2011.
