Jayson Tatum seals Boston's 125-124 OT win over the Brooklyn Nets with a 17‑foot buzzer‑beater—the first of his career since returning from a torn right Achilles in the 2025 playoffs. The star drops 40 points, hits a career‑high 18 of 22 free throws and adds eight assists, tying Bill Sharman for third‑most buzzer‑beaters in Celtics history. The shot also makes Tatum the first player ever to record 40 points and a game‑winning buzzer‑beater before November. The victory moves the Celtics to 3‑1 overall and unbeaten at TD Garden, while the Nets fall to 0‑4.
The Brooklyn Nets fell just short of their season‑opening win, losing to the Boston Celtics 125‑124 in overtime on Oct. 27, 2026. Rookie Nolan Traoré earned his first start, scoring 15 points on 6‑9 shooting and briefly leading a strong first half, but cramping forced his exit early in the fourth. The Nets’ early defense, bolstered by Day’Ron Sharpe, held Boston’s normally lethal 3‑point shooting at 2‑15, yet the Celtics rallied in the third, shooting 8‑14 from deep to regain the lead. A late surge from Michael Porter Jr. and Mikel Brown Jr., who combined for 25 points, wasn’t enough as Boston clinched the win in OT.
Jayson Tatum speaks up after leading Celtics to 125-124 win over Nets.
Brooklyn passed on a potential trade for All‑Star forward Jaylen Brown, fearing the distraction his close friendship with Kyrie Irving could cause, despite the Celtics' interest and rumored offers involving Michael Porter Jr., Day’Ron Sharpe and draft picks. Meanwhile, Nets guard Egor Demin exits early with a leg contusion after logging two points and two assists in a loss to Boston. Knicks assistant/associate head coach Chris Jent is out for personal reasons, with T.J. Saint stepping in, and the Knicks have been spun off into a separate publicly traded entity (MSG Knickerbockers Corp.) with shares near $300, while the Rangers form a distinct MSG Rangers Corp.
It may have taken until the very last millisecond of overtime, but it counts as a win all the same for the Boston Celtics. The Celtics were pushed to the brink by the winless Brooklyn Nets, but Jayson Tatum put his foot down and decided that Boston wasn’t about to suffer a crushing loss at […]

The second nights of back-to-backs are rarely easy, no matter who you play. And the Jordi Fernandez-led Brooklyn Nets have always played the Boston Celtics tough. Tuesday night was no different.
Jayson Tatum delivers a clutch performance as the Boston Celtics edge the Brooklyn Nets 125-124 in overtime on Oct. 27, 2026. Tatum finishes with 40 points and eight assists, including the game-winner in the final second. The Nets, who led at halftime and forced OT, saw contributions from Michael Porter Jr. and Julius Randle, but Boston’s late surge—bolstered by Paul George’s 20 points and Derrick White’s 16—secures the win. Both teams struggled from beyond the arc, with the Celtics shooting just 2-16 in the first half. The victory caps a back‑to‑back night for Boston, preserving their league‑second best net rating.

Officials called the non-unsportsmanlike technical at the 1:18 mark after Randle went down near the paint during a Nolan Traore drive. The call came […]

Former NBA guard Malik Beasley, a former Denver Nuggets and Minnesota Timberwolves player, has agreed to plead guilty to federal charges tied to a sports‑betting and bribery scheme. Indicted in June 2026 alongside ex‑player Ed Davis, Beasley will enter his plea on Dec. 9, 2026 in Brooklyn. Prosecutors allege he deliberately underperformed in four games (Cavaliers, Hornets, Clippers, Nets) during the 2023‑24 season to affect proposition bets, with Davis reportedly loaning him money for the plot. The scandal ended Beasley’s NBA run; Detroit withdrew a $42 million contract after learning of the investigation. The case also involves four other defendants.
