Jayson Tatum has shared a picture from his hospital bed as he begins the long road to recovery from his sickening Achilles tear.

Tatum tore his right Achilles tendon on Monday night against the New York Knicks when he lunged toward a loose ball and his leg gave out. 

After writing on the floor in agont, he buried his face in a towel before needing a wheelchair to make it back to the locker room.

He underwent surgery, the Celtics announced on Tuesday, and Wednesday afternoon the 27-year-old himself spoke out.

He captioned a thumbs-up picture from his hospital bed by saying: ‘Thankful for all the love and support.’
