Jayson Tatum Sets New Records in Game 7
Boston Celtics Secure Victory
51-Point Performance Breaks Previous Record
Jayson Tatum, star forward for the Boston Celtics, delivered a remarkable performance in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals, leading his team to a hard-fought victory over the Philadelphia 76ers.
Tatum exploded for a franchise-record 51 points, surpassing Larry Bird's previous game-high of 42 points in a Game 7. He also hauled in 11 rebounds and dished out five assists.
The Celtics withstood a late charge by the 76ers to secure the series win. Tatum's heroics came just two weeks after Stephen Curry's 50-point performance against the Boston Celtics in Game 4 of the NBA Finals.
Tatum's performance underscores his growing stature as one of the NBA's elite players. At just 24 years old, he has already established himself as a perennial All-Star and a cornerstone of the Celtics' championship aspirations.
