Boston Celtics live to fight another day, win Game 4 over Miami Heat, 116-99

With their backs against the wall in a fashion they’ve seldom been accustomed to, the Boston Celtics dug deep and found some answers. Seeking to climb out of a self-inflicted hole in the Eastern Conference Finals — and become the first team in NBA history to win a series after trailing three games to zero — they won Game 4 over the Miami Heat, 116-99, behind an impressive second half effort.

Jayson Tatum was the rising tide that raised all ships this evening. He scored 34 points, grabbed 11 boards and dished 7 assists in his 42 minutes, buoying the Celtics with their season on the line once again.
