Celtics Fans Hyped About Reports Of Jayson Tatum’s Five-Year Extension

Tatum's extension reportedly could be worth up to $195.6 million

The Boston Celtics checked off an important to-do Sunday afternoon.

After a busy week of the NBA draft, trades and free agency transactions, the team managed to fit in Jayson Tatum's enormous rookie scale extension.

Tatum and the Celtics reportedly agreed to a five-year extension that could be worth as much as $195.6 million.

And for a fan base that went on a roller coaster of emotions in the wake of some shake ups with the roster, Celtics twitter was thrilled with the news, even if they knew it was coming.

Only real ones get it. #WCT
