NBA Second-Round Playoffs: Celtics rout Bucks 109-86 to tie series at 1-1

Over to the NBA, Jaylen Brown has inspired the Celtics to a 109-86 thrashing of the Milwaukee Bucks at the TD Garden, as Boston leveled their 2nd-round playoff series, at one game apiece.

The Celtics clamped down on Giannis Antetokounmpo after his triple-double in the series opener, and apart from a 3rd quarter that the Greek star scored 18 points, Boston did a great job of holding him down.

They kept a healthy lead throughout the match, to eventually take the win by a massive 23-point margin. Brown shook off a dark shooting night in Game 1, by hitting 25 of his 30 points in the first half, while Jayson Tatum added 19 points and 8 assists. The series doesn't resume until Game 3 on Saturday, in Milwaukee.
