The Boston Celtics opened up their 2021-22 season last night as they traveled to Madison Square Garden in New York to take on the Knicks under new head coach Ime Udoka. The Celtics took the game to double OT only to fall short, losing 138-134. 

In good news for Celtics fans, a COVID-recovered Jaylen Brown finished with 46 points, along with 9 rebounds and 6 assists but it wasn't enough to combat a 35 point night for New York Knicks “big man”Julius Randle and 32 point game for Evan Fournier. The Celtics will travel home for their game at the TD Garden tomorrow at 7:30 PM against the Toronto Raptors.
