In his first season under the bright lights of NBA superstardom, Jayson Tatum embraced the challenge in a year that should chart his course for the future. He showed he can ball with the best, but the Celtics ultimately disappointed in the playoffs, losing to the Miami Heat.
For Tatum, that means it’s on to the offseason, which also means spending time with significant others.
One significant other just so happens to be singer Ella Mai. We linked the two a few weeks back. Now there’s more receipts to show they’re more than just friends., and are in fact, Boo’d Up.
We caught Ella broadcasting live from Jayson’s crib.

That’s definitely a match.
According to Spotrac, Tatum has earned just over $20 million during his three years in the NBA. $5.6 million of that came during his rookie seasons; the forward’s salary rose to $6.7 million as an NBA sophomore and sits at $7.8 million for 2019-20.
On an episode of Kneading Dough, Tatum explained that his mother helped him plan his financial future.
“Our biggest thing was to save all of my NBA money,” he told Maverick Carter. “All of the money I get from the Celtics, I put it in a savings account, eventually invest in it, let it grow over time, and just try to live solely on what I make off the court in endorsements.”

As noted by CNBC, Tatum’s endorsement deals “have included Gatorade, Imo’s Pizza and Honey Dew Donuts.” He’s also signed to the Jordan brand, which presumably carries plenty of financial upside, too.
He’s definitely long overdue for a serious pay raise. In the meantime he can continue to spend time with the super successful Ella Mai.
Seems like a good fit.
