The New York Knicks secured a crucial 121-113 victory over the Boston Celtics last night at Madison Square Garden. This win gives the Knicks a 3-1 lead in their Eastern Conference Semifinals series, putting them one game away from advancing to the Conference Finals. Jalen Brunson led the Knicks with 27 points and 9 assists, delivering a standout performance in the second half to help New York erase a 14-point deficit. Celtics star Jayson Tatum suffered a lower leg injury late in the third quarter and did not return, casting doubt on his availability for the remainder of the series. Although not confirmed, many strongly believe Tatum’s injury is an achilles tear. The Knicks will have a chance to close out the series in Game 5, scheduled for Wednesday, May 14, 2025, in Boston at TD Garden. How bad is Tatum's injury? Can the Knicks close the Celtics out next game? Is the Knicks' success surprising? The Celtics have some financial decisions to make next year. Will the Celtics have a strong roster next season?
