One of the biggest storylines from the Boston Celtics’ offseason has been Jayson Tatum’s injury rehab (https://nesn.com/2025/08/jayson-tatum-sheds-light-grueling-injury-rehab/). After he suffered a torn Achilles tendon in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference semifinals, Tatum is expected to miss the entire 2025-26 campaign. Yet, all signs point to Tatum being ahead of schedule when it comes to his recovery from this serious injury. For starters, he underwent surgery less than 24 hours after going down with this injury, which is done with the hopes of speeding up his recovery timeline. NBA players typically need 10-12 months to fully heal from a torn Achilles. Since then, Tatum has attacked his injury rehab, and the results are paying off. He’s already shed the walking boot he had to sport earlier in the summer, and reports have indicated that he is moving pretty well considering the severity of this ailment. Still, considering Tatum’s love for the game of basketball, being away from the court for an extended period of time has been understandably tough for him. After a clip of him discussing his rehab progress (https://nesn.com/2025/08/celtics-star-talks-rehab-reaches-100-day-mark-since-surgery/) surfaced on social media, the Celtics sent him a supportive five-word message (https://x.com/celtics/status/1958259498243768744) on social media. ‘One day at a time,’ the Celtics said in response to Tatum’s latest comments on his injury rehab.
