Jayson Tatum’s two-way performance was key in the Celtics comeback

At halftime of Wednesday’s night game against the Milwaukee Bucks, the Boston Celtics were facing a 58-42 deficit. The team could not find any rhythm offensively which led to the Bucks getting into transition, their favorite style of play. Whenever the Celtics came within single digits, Milwaukee always hit the clutch shot to push the lead back out killing any crowd momentum that was building.

This was all until the second half began and the script completely flipped. The Bucks squandered a 16-point lead in the third quarter resulting in the Celtics leading by 4 at the end of three.
