Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum is on track to rejoin the lineup ahead of schedule after suffering what was described as a “crushing” injury, the New York Post reported on Oct. 4, 2025.
The initial outlook had pointed to an extended absence for the forward, but the latest update indicates his rehabilitation is progressing faster than team officials first believed. An accelerated return would provide an immediate lift for Boston as the club prepares for the upcoming NBA season.
No specific timetable has been announced, and the Celtics have not yet commented publicly on the report.
