Jayson Tatum is on the verge of making his sixth consecutive All-Star game after winning an NBA title but did not expect barbs coming his way to slow down. “Surprised? No. I think it comes with being one of the best players in the league,” Tatum said of the criticism. “And the more you accomplish, the more it gives people an opportunity to nitpick at things. If I wasn’t who I was or had a certain status, people would probably not talk about me as much. But I’m not the first superstar in league history to deal with this. It comes with it.”
