- Monday the Boston Celtics lost 105-103 to the Utah Jazz at TD Garden in a final-minute, one-possession finish.

- With about 47 seconds left, Keyonte George slipped and Brown tripped, leading to a Utah transition score, with Scott saying, `During live play, the crew observed George slip and fall just prior to Brown slipping on the same spot, resulting in the ball becoming loose prior to any contact.`
- Jaylen Brown blasted officials, saying, "Then they're telling me like, 'We didn't see it.' You can't trip somebody in the fourth quarter and it just be a no-call. It's some bulls---." Joe Mazzulla added he got no explanation and Brown could face league discipline.
