We had an agreement that I couldn’t spend the money I make from the Celtics, and that I have to rely on my endorsements,” Tatum shared with Bessinger.

Her and my accountant came to that agreement. They didn’t anticipate how much I would make off the court. So, in my mind, I feel like I have to spend that money.”
