Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum had a near-miraculous return this season after tearing his Achilles tendon in last year's playoffs and looks to be in prime forward heading into the playoffs.

Despite missing most of the year due to his injury, Tatum was seventh in the NBA in Jersey sales.

The six players ahead of Tatum were: Golden State Warriors guard Steph Curry, Los Angeles Lakers guard Luka Doncic, New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson, San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama, Lakers forward LeBron James and Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards.
