The third-year forward is averaging 21.6 points, 7.1 rebounds and 2.8 assists through 27 games. The numbers speak for themselves, but the fact that Tatum is excelling for a Celtics that is second in the Eastern Conference should help his case, as well.

the 2019-20 NBA All-Star Game starters will be revealed Jan. 23, with the reserves being announced Jan. 30.
