Adding a layer of concern for Boston, star player Jayson Tatum was forced to leave the game in the third quarter with a left calf injury. This setback, particularly for a player who has already overcome a significant Achilles tendon issue this season, casts a shadow over the Celtics' prospects for the do-or-die Game 7. The team will be anxiously awaiting updates on Tatum's condition as they prepare to host the deciding game at the TD Garden.
