BOSTON (AP) — Jayson Tatum scored 25 points with 10 rebounds and nine assists to lead the Boston Celtics to a 118-105 victory over the New York Knicks on Sunday. Tatum just missed getting a triple-double for the second straight game after earning one in a victory at Philadelphia on Thursday.

Jayson Tatum has established himself not only as one of the top players in the NBA but also as one of the greatest players in Boston Celtics history. While it is too early to rank him among the likes of Bill Russell and Larry Bird, there is no doubt that Tatum has a chance to at least be in the conversation when all is said and done.

Jayson Tatum fell one assist short of a triple-double for the Boston Celtics, who once against dealt a swift lesson to the New York Knicks in the form of a 118-105 triumph at TD Garden on Sunday afternoon. Tatum put up a team-best 25 points and 10 rebounds in the latest victory over the Knicks, their third in as many meetings so far this season.
