Celtics star injured at Knick's loss

Jayson Tatum was worn on Monday evening with 2:58 in the game 4 of the semi -finals of the Eastern Conference with 2:58 with a injury to the lower right leg.

The Celtics had just turned the ball and fell forward towards the loose ball when Tatum, gave out his leg and went down. He buried his face with obvious pain in a towel while he reached over his ankle after the non -contact violation.

The New York Knicks won 121-113 to take over a 3-1 lead. The series will resume in Boston on Wednesday, with the Celtics to win to extend their NBA title government.

Mazzulla said that the all-star striker would undergo an MRI exam on Tuesday.

“I think it's hard tonight,” said the Celtics' Jaylen Brown. “I think everyone has a kind of loss of words just because you lose the game, but obviously the concern for Jt. But we'll get up again tomorrow and go out of there.”

Tatum was phenomenal before the injury, scored 42 points, his playoffs high and made seven three points. He buried his face in his hands when he pushed a tunnel down in a wheelchair after leaving the floor.

Tatum, an eight-year-old veteran, won his first NBA title last year when he led Boston to his 18th championship. Player and coach on both sides expressed their concern about Tatum, who was injured in game 1 of the opening against Orlando when he was awkward attempt in a dunk attempt, shortly before the short dish, before he was short of his right cancer. He stayed in the game before missing game 2 when he had missed a playoff game in his career for the first time.

The Celtics won this time without him. Now you are faced with the fact that you have to do it again.

“Obviously it is difficult to see, but who has had no injuries, do you know?” Celtics Center Kristaps Porzingis said. “And it is part of this sport, part of this game, and of course we feel for him. But we have to go forward. He doesn't want us to be sad here and not play our best basketball. So we will go out there and let everything out there and live with the result.”
