When Boston Celtics became NBA champions last year, it was the club's 18th league title – the most in American basketball history.
This year's playoffs look darker for the championship team. They lost away to New York Knicks with 113–121 and with a 1–3 deficit, Boston is one loss away from being eliminated in the quarterfinals.
"Always worried"
In addition, star Jayson Tatum injured in the end of the game. Tatum, who scored 42 points, was carried off the court and was later seen being pushed into the locker room in a wheelchair.
Now, a magnetic camera examination of Boston player's right leg awaits.
Of course, one is always worried about someone's health. It's twofold. We are worried about how he feels and how the situation is with him, but we are also concerned about what we need to do better in game five, says Boston coach Joe Mazzulla.
For a long time, Boston seemed to equalize the series, which is decided in best of seven. Early after the break, the away team led by 14 points, then Knicks woke up both offensively and defensively. Jalen Brunson scored 18 points in the third period and with a total of 39 points, he was a major reason why Knicks could win with 121–113 in the end.
Curry injured
Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry was injured when they won the first quarterfinal against Minnesota. Since then, Curry has not played and the team has suffered three straight losses.
Tonight, the score was written to 110–117 and Minnesota leads the series with 3–1 in matches.
