Jayson Tatum and the Celtics put together a dominant second half on Tuesday, pulling away from the Magic in Game 5 for a 120-89 victory that propelled them into the second round.
Here are the takeaways.
Jayson Tatum was masterful. Again.
If the wrist that Tatum injured in Game 1 bothered him at all in any of the games he played, he never showed it.
Tuesday’s Game 5 may have been Tatum’s best performance of the series – a 35-point masterpiece on 10-for-16 shooting, including 4-for-5 from three and 11-for-11 from the free-throw line.
