Derrick White says the meeting between the top 6 Celtics occurred about a week ago. Jayson Tatum pulled him into a room, and each player made it clear that they’re OK coming off the bench for betterment of the team. White suggested starting lineup may change based upon matchups.

Please lmao JT and JB aren’t coming off the bench
6th man Tatum just for the one time would be fun as hell for the novelty
Can we stop making this such a big deal? Al is almost 40 and is our 6th best player lmao. He can come off the bench
Al probably has to start against Milwaukee and maybe Denver. Other than that I think he’s the 6 man this yr
This seems obvious: JT, JB, and KP always start, and then two of Holiday, White, and Al depending on matchups and health. It’s all cool, my babies.
> each player
6th man Jaylen has Manu potential. [He would always be closing](https://youtu.be/GrhSLf0I-HM?si=kkk7um0B_dP5HDIh)
The big story here is Tatum being suggested as the guy initiating this conversation. Him stepping into a leadership role is what this team needs.
Love this
Has anyone ever won MVP and sixth man award in the same year?
this is how you play team based basketball.
