Tatum suffered a right wrist bone bruise in Game 1 of the first round series against the Magic. The injury occurred in the fourth quarter when he went up for a dunk and was knocked out of the air by Orlando's Kentavious Caldwell-Pope. Tatum hit the ground hard and Caldwell-Pope earned a flagrant foul.

That got veteran Boston big man Al Horford angry, and the Florida alum had some words for Orlando postgame. The animus carried over into Game 2 when KCP appeared to intentionally trip Horford in the second half, sparking a near-fight between the two East ball clubs.

The Boston Celtics listed Jayson Tatum as doubtful for Game 3 of their Eastern Conference first-round playoff series against the Orlando Magic due to the bone bruise in his right wrist.
