Jayson Tatum off to MVP-caliber start entering Steve Kerr showdown
League-wide, Tatum is fourth in points per game behind Anthony Davis, Giannis Antetokonmpo and Tyrese Maxey despite sitting out the entire fourth quarter in three of his contests. He’s fifth in efficiency behind Nikola Jokic, Davis, Antetokounmpo and Domantas Sabonis and first in win shares, a stat that’s long been closely linked to MVP candidacy.
