Knicks vs. Celtics: Derrick White, Luke Kornet keep Boston alive, force Game 6 with 127-102 win
The Boston Celtics live to play at least one more game in their second-round playoff series against the New York Knicks, winning 127-102 Wednesday night at TD Garden. Boston cut its series deficit to 3-2 with Game 6 to be played Friday night in New York. Whether the Celtics could win Game 5 was in considerable doubt after leading scorer Jayson Tatum was lost for the remainder of the postseason (and likely all of next season) with a torn right Achilles tendon suffered during Monday's Game 4
