The Boston Celtics have had to deal with a lot of different narratives from the media regarding Jayson Tatum over the last couple of years, with a lot of them being negative. This is despite the fact that Tatum was a first-team All-NBA performer a year ago when the Celtics won their 18th NBA championship.

Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla was fined $35,000 for “aggressively pursuing and directing inappropriate language toward a game official” Thursday night. Mazzulla received a technical foul for leaving the coach’s box and walking onto the floor during the fourth quarter of the Celtics’ 117-108 loss to the Chicago Bulls.

The NBA announced on Saturday that Mazzulla was fined $35,000 for "aggressively pursuing and directing inappropriate language toward a game official" after the Celtics lost 108-117 to the Chicago Bulls. Once the buzzer sounded, Mazzulla went straight to the ref and could be seen yelling and pointing in anger.
