Jayson Tatum picks up first career ejection in Celtics' loss

NEW YORK -- A frustrating night for Jayson Tatum ended early, as the Boston Celtics superstar was given a second technical foul and his first career ejection with 3 minutes, 46 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter of a 109-94 New York Knicks victory on Monday at a sold-out Madison Square Garden.

"I don't know," Tatum said, when asked what led him to get ejected in this game, compared to past times he already had a technical foul.

Then, he smiled.

"But all the great players get thrown out a few times in their career," he said.
