Basketball Hall of Fame member and 11-time All-Star, now a television analyst, **Charles Barkley** commented on the injury sustained by the Boston Celtics’ forward **Jayson Tatum**. This incident occurred during the fourth game of the second round of the NBA playoffs between the New York Knicks and Boston, which ended with a score of 113-121, putting the series at 1-3. Following a fall onto the court, Tatum was unable to leave the floor independently, and later, he was diagnosed with a rupture of his right Achilles tendon.
“My first move would be to call Kevin Durant. I mentioned the same thing to Victor Wembanyama regarding his thrombosis – my initial call would be to Chris Bosh. As for Jayson, I would reach out to Kevin Durant. It feels like it’s been six years since Kevin injured his Achilles, and he’s still an outstanding player. So he’d be the first person I’d contact. I’d say, ‘Hey, let me know what to expect. How should the rehabilitation process go?’” Barkley stated on the Bleacher Report channel on **YouTube**.
Durant suffered an Achilles tendon rupture during the NBA Finals against the Toronto Raptors in the 2018/2019 season.
