When Boston Celtics All-Star forward Jayson Tatum breaks a shooting slump, he doesn’t pull any punches. And he didn’t in his 51-point pummeling of the Washington Wizards, powering the Celtics’ 116-87 beatdown of the Wiz at Capital One Arena on that fateful day.
The St. Louis native put up the third-most points of his career on his way to shooting 18-of-28 from the floor overall, 9-of-14 from beyond the arc and 6-of-6 from the charity stripe.

Make Liberty Win, a Virginia-based PAC , has been sending text messages and mailers to Wyoming voters, and knocking on doors in support of various legislative candidates, but has failed to provide accurate information. Many of the candidates the PAC is supporting are either members of, or ideologically aligned with, the hard-line Wyoming Freedom Caucus.
