Jayson Tatum had a perfect opportunity to ice Saturday night’s game in the final seconds of regulation. He shook off the Raptors defender to take an uncontested mid-range jumper, but was well off the mark.
In overtime, he got the chance to redeem himself. And this time, Tatum left no doubts.
On a broken play that saw Jaylen Brown fall to the floor with no foul called, Tatum found himself stranded well beyond the three-point line with three seconds left and counting. He had no choice but to take the long, contested jumper for the win. And drained it.
