After Jayson Tatum's season-ending injury, the Celtics needed to regroup ahead of an elimination game, so they relied on two of their trusty veterans.

The end of the Boston Celtics' Game 4 loss to the New York Knicks on Monday was devastating. Far worse than going down 3-1 in their second-round series was the fact that Jayson Tatum was lost for the remainder of this run (and likely next season) after rupturing his Achilles tendon.

Jayson Tatum was ruled out for the remainder of the NBA Playoffs and beyond after suffering a ruptured Achilles in the final minutes of Game 4. The former Duke standout underwent surgery the very next day (Tuesday) and will start the long recovery process.
