Celtics star Jayson Tatum wants another shot at playing Duke head coach Jon Scheyer in a game of one-on-one.<\/p>\n

\"Jayson<\/p>\n
After a successful summer that featured\u00a0an NBA championship<\/a>\u00a0and an Olympic gold medal,\u00a0Boston Celtics<\/a>\u00a0star\u00a0Jayson Tatum<\/a>\u00a0was on top of the basketball world. However, Duke head coach\u00a0Jon Scheyer<\/a> wanted to remind him of his humble beginnings on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Scheyer, who was a part of Duke’s coaching staff when Tatum arrived at the prestigious university in 2016, bragged about beating the former Blue Devil in a game of one-on-one. He also claimed to defeat\u00a0former Duke forward Amile Jefferson<\/a>, who’s now an assistant coach with the Celtics, via \u201cThe Brotherhood Podcast.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to be clear, I didn’t just beat Jayson. I beat Amile Jefferson too,\u201d Scheyer told current Duke guard Caleb Foster. \u201cI beat both of them. I just want to be very clear. I want to get the record straight \u2026 It was a game to five. We played from their sweet spots \u2026 Here’s the problem. Nobody knows their moves better than I do. So I just had to get a couple of stops and I had to pray I could score. And I did it.\u201d<\/p>\n
