9月30日，体育新闻传来消息，凯尔特人队的明星球员杰森·塔图姆在SiriusXM广播节目中进行了访谈，他透露了为何选择公开展示并分享自己跟腱损伤的恢复历程。
塔图姆透露：“全球范围内，成百上千万的人正遭受着痛苦、受伤或类似的困扰。根据我最初的理解，我曾认为术后患者只会被提供阿片类药物，随后只能忍受这些药物的负面影响。我未曾意识到，除此之外，还有其他可行的治疗方案，以及这种可能性实际上存在。”
Thus, I am acutely aware of my identity and the extensive platform at my disposal. With millions of eyes upon my journey, from the initial tribulations to the full recovery process, I aspire to harness my voice. It is my hope that the personal experiences I have undergone can offer a spark of inspiration to others, and in doing so, extend a helping hand along the way.
