There's a running joke that Kobe Bryant is a double agent sent by the Los Angeles Lakers to sabotage Jayson Tatum. It was Bryant, after all, who worked out with Tatum on several occasions last offseason and may or may not have contributed to the Boston Celtics forward's newfound habit of chucking long twos. And after those workouts with Bryant, Tatum registered significant dips in overall field goal percentage (47.5 to 45.0), 3-point field goal percentage (43.4 to 37.3) and effective field goal percentage (53.8 to 50.6) from his rookie year as part of an unfulfilling 2018-19 campaign in Boston.
