Mazula: I haven t considered the possibility of Tatum s absence next season. More players who focus on the current

May 17th G6 Celtics lost to the Knicks 81-119 away, and were eliminated 2-4 in the big score and stopped in the second round. After the game, coach Mazula accepted an interview with the media.

Asked about the possibility of losing Tatum next season, Mazula said: "I really didn't think about that situation for a second. It's more about focusing on the players in the locker room now, thanking them for their efforts and everything they've been through. This is what really matters."

Previously, the Celtics announced that Tatum had completed a rupture repair surgery for the right Achilles tendon and there is no return schedule yet.
