Boston Celtics All-Star point guard Kemba Walker has seen enough from Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown to label both youngsters as superstars in the NBA.

Walker talked about Tatum and Brown's incredible talent after the Celtics' Game 2 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday, per Chris Grenham of Forbes.

Celtics fans have always known why general manager Danny Ainge held on to Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown despite multiple superstars requesting trades and teams asking for Brown and Tatum in return over the past couple of years.

Boston supporters had the same feeling as Ainge. They could sense that Tatum and Brown were going to turn into superstars. It was just going to take a little bit of time.

Both forwards have taken their games to another level this season. Since Kemba Walker is still making his way back from knee soreness and Gordon Hayward is out with an ankle injury, the Celtics must rely on Tatum and Brown to carry the load on offense in the Sixers series.

Brown signed a contract extension with the Celtics before the 2019-20 season started. Meanwhile, Tatum is eligible to sign an extension this offseason and he's expected to get a max contract from Boston.

The future of the Celtics is bright with Tatum and Brown leading the way. They could also contend for the Eastern Conference crown this season.
