Tatum played at Madison Square Garden for the first time since rupturing his Achilles in last May's playoffs Thursday, recording his tenth double-double of the season — 24 points (7-of-22 FGs, 8-of-10 FTs), 13 rebounds, eight assists, one steal, and two three-pointers in the loss to the Knicks.

It was his seventh straight game with at least 20 points, and the eight assists alongside the double-double made the overall line useful despite a tough shooting night. Boston was also without Jaylen Brown, which factored into the defeat.
