Knicks come up huge at home to take 3-1 lead over Celtics as Boston loses star to apparent leg injury

  • The New York Knicks secured a 121-113 win over the Boston Celtics on Monday at Madison Square Garden, taking a 3-1 advantage in their Eastern Conference semifinal series.
  • The Celtics, defending NBA champions, squandered a double-digit third-quarter lead and lost star forward Jayson Tatum to a right leg injury with under three minutes left.
  • Jalen Brunson led the Knicks with 39 points and 12 assists, while Mikal Bridges, Karl-Anthony Towns, and OG Anunoby also made significant contributions during New York’s late rally.
  • Tatum scored 42 points on 16-of-28 shooting—his playoff high—but collapsed in pain chasing a loose ball and was carried off in a wheelchair as the Celtics face an MRI assessment.
  • The Celtics face the challenge of overcoming a 3-1 series deficit for only the 14th time in NBA history, likely without the help of their top player, as Game 5 returns to Boston on Wednesday night.
