NBA rescinds Jayson Tatum hand clap technical
As one would have expected, the NBA today rescinded yesterday's technical foul on Jayson Tatum. The obvious guess here is that the ref thought that the hand slap was a protest against him and not just Tatum being frustrated with himself. Even if it had been directed at the foul call, it still would have been a pretty weak technical. And I'm not even being a homer here.The @NBA is rescinding Jayson Tatum’s technical foul from last night, the hand clap called by John Goble, according to an NBA source. #Celtics.

The most important thing with the technical being rescinded is it doesn't count for Tatum's season technical tally, which can lead to an eventual automatic suspension.
Jayson tatum just received the worst tech I’ve seen in the nba in a while. I’m actually laughing
