The Boston Celtics host the New York Knicks for Game 5 of their second round NBA Playoffs series on Wednesday, May 14.

All eyes will be on TD Garden tonight as the Jayson Tatum-less Celtics look to avoid being eliminated from their second-round matchup against the Knicks.

During his time suiting up for the Celtics, Lucas wore only jersey No. 20 and put up 1.0 points and 1.0 assists per game.

The Boston Celtics will still be coming to terms with the fact that Jayson Tatum will be out of the rotation for the foreseeable future. The All-NBA forward suffered a torn Achilles tendon due to a non-contact injury on May 12. Tatum has already undergone surgery and is staring at a long road to recovery.

With Jayson Tatum likely to miss next season due to injury, there is more talk than ever about the Celtics potentially cutting payroll costs.

With the Celtics facing elimination, Jaylen Brown delivers a strong and timely message to his team ahead of a must-win Game 5.

The Boston Celtics haven't sent any internal signals about trimming their payroll in future seasons, according to ESPN's Brian Windhorst.

On this day, the Boston Celtics won their 14th championship, beating the Houston Rockets in Game 6 of the 1981 NBA Finals.
