An already brutal night for the Boston Celtics ended with a disaster after Jyson had suffered a serious injury.

With less than three minutes in the Knicks 121-113 Knicks victory in game 4 of the semi-finals of the Eastern Conference, Tatum apparently did not suffer contacts ankle/foot injury when he tried to hit the OG anunoby into a loose ball.

When Anunoby raised the loose ball on the way to the other end of the floor on the way to a dunk, Tatum curved with clear pain on the hardwood of the Madison Square Garden. Tatum finally got off the square with the help of Boston's training staff and did not put on his right leg.

When the Celtics tried to steal back in the fourth quarter, ESPN cameras act in a wheelchair after the injury into the changing room.

It is unclear what kind of injuries Tatum suffered on the play, although the non-contacts of nature of the piece and the look of the Celtics superstar, who take his Achilles, throws the fears of an illness that could go far beyond this current after season.

Several NBA stars, including LeBron James, went to social media immediately after the play to wish you all the best.

Before his injury, Tatum was in the middle of one of his best off-season games in his career and led Boston with 42 points (16-von-28 shooting) with eight rebounds, four templates, four steals and two blocks.

The Celtics-Jetz 3: 1 in its series against New York Mastes probably hand in the TD Garden on Wednesday evening without their best player.
