NBA's official injury report
In the second-round of the playoffs against the Milwaukee Bucks, Tatum took a hard foul after a dunk and was clearly in pain in his wrist.
After the game (Game 3), he had alluded to it being something that he has been dealing with for a while.
In Game 5 of that series he dropped 46 points in a win on the road to avoid elimination, so clearly he has been able to play through any issues.
In Game 1 against the Heat, the Celtics lost to fall into an 0-1 hole, but Tatum did have 29 points, eight rebounds and six assists.
