LOS ANGELES -- Another dramatic chapter was written in the long, storied history of the Los Angeles Lakers and Boston Celtics rivalry on Tuesday night.
The Celtics won in overtime, 122-118, in a game Boston appeared to have no business losing, then no business winning after a wild comeback by L.A.
Boston, led by Jayson Tatum's 44 points on the night, outscored L.A. 12-8 in the extra period to pull out the win.
The Lakers trailed the Celtics by as many as 20 points in the third quarter but used an 18-0 run through the end of the third to the beginning of the fourth to take control, going ahead by as many as 13 with 4:25 remaining in regulation.
