The star of the Boston Celtics Jayson Tatum is not the one who likes screaming and showing himself off. However, he has a strong opinion regarding his leadership style.

“Everybody is different, right? And I’m sure the people who watch the games and give their opinion on what happens kind of want you to be a certain way,” Tatum said after dropping 50 points on the Washington Wizards in play-in game.

“(They) think that, if you’re yelling and screaming and stuff like that, that that necessarily makes you a leader. It works for some guys.

“It can be in how you play, how you show up every day, pulling guys to the side — everybody won’t see that. I’m certain that people think that since I’m not overly emotional or do things like that, they kinda can question whatever they wanna question. Leadership comes in all different types of fashions. I just do it in my own way.”
