Sunday night in Indianapolis, Indiana, Jayson Tatum will start for the Eastern Conference for the fourth straight year. But the night before, the five-time All-Star will make his TNT Sports Analyst debut, working alongside Vince Carter, Carmelo Anthony, and host Adam Lefkoe on an alternate Saturday telecast, per Richard Deitsch of The Athletic.

The Boston Celtics superstar will be an analyst for the 3-Point Contest. The expectation is that he also fills the same role for the Stephen Curry vs. Sabrina Ionescu 3-Point Challenge.

Saturday night could be the first of many analyst appearances for Tatum, who turns just 26 in March.

And after he leaves the booth following the conclusion of those three-point shootouts, don't be surprised if Jaylen Brown involves him in one of his attempts during the Slam Dunk Contest.
