Celtics fend off Deuce McBride's surge to secure victory over Knicks

The Boston Celtics earned their first win of the season with a 107-103 victory over the New York Knicks on October 23 at TD Garden. Deuce McBride's impressive shooting, including six three-pointers and 23 points off the bench, helped the Knicks close a 10-point deficit entering the fourth quarter. Jayson Tatum responded with critical baskets as New York threatened late in the game, allowing Boston to maintain its lead until the final whistle. The Celtics aim to build on this win moving forward, while also addressing defensive inconsistencies highlighted by McBride's performance.
