Who will step up alongside Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown?
While the Boston Celtics want Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown to be heavily involved in their offense, they will need other guys to step up.
Besides Schroder, Marcus Smart, Josh Richardson, and other players are going to have to contribute for Boston to be a contender in the Eastern Conference.
Walker put up formidable numbers with the Celtics in recent years, but he wasn’t an ideal fit due to needing the ball to be effective.
Schroder may be a bit different if he can be efficient from deep and create more opportunities on the defensive end. Richardson is mostly known for his defense, but he’ll need to provide scoring at times as well.

Along with the health of Tatum and Brown, the success of the Celtics this season is dependent on the players around their two star players.
