Boston Celtics win streak snapped in stunning loss to Cleveland Cavaliers, 105-104

As their win streak extended and their grasp on the league’s best record continues to solidfy, the NBA’s number one question became more and more pressing: can anyone beat the Boston Celtics? At least for a night, the Cleveland Cavaliers provided an answer. In the two teams’ final meeting of the season, the Cavs — one of the East’s best stories in their own right — rattled off an enormous 32-6 run in the fourth quarter to stun the NBA’s best team, snapping an 11-game win streak on a shocking conclusion that featured an overturned call against Jayson Tatum at the end of regulation.
