Jayson Tatum scored 10 of his game-high 46 points in a key fourth-quarter sequence and teammates Jaylen Brown and Marcus Smart added key hoops as the Boston Celtics held off the host Milwaukee Bucks 108-95 last night to force a Game 7 in their Eastern Conference semifinal playoff series.
Brown finished with 22 points and Smart 21 for the second-seeded Celtics, who continued a trend in the series by winning for a second time on Milwaukee’s home floor.
Game 7 will be held tomorrow at Boston, where the Bucks have two earlier wins in three tries in the series.
