Witness the Celtics' epic evening as they reign supreme with a record-tying 29 three-pointers and a show-stopping banner ceremony!
On a night filled with glitz and nostalgia, the Boston Celtics celebrated their rich legacy by raising Banner 18 to the rafters of TD Garden. They kicked off the 2024-2025 NBA season with a bang on Tuesday night, not only receiving their diamond-studded championship rings but also dominating the New York Knicks in a resounding 132-109 victory. Star player Jayson Tatum took center stage, dazzling fans with 37 points while contributing an astounding eight of the Celtics’ record-tying 29 three-pointers.
The atmosphere was electric as legends from past eras of the franchise gathered to witness one of the biggest moments in Celtics history. The players’ excitement was contagious; they played with a fervor that seemed to channel the spirits of each championship team. It was a display of sheer talent and teamwork, leaving the Knicks looking rather like deer caught in headlights. The Knicks, making their own adjustments with a new-look lineup, quickly found themselves outmatched, proving that if any team can withstand a title defense with flair, it’s Boston.
As the evening unfolded, viewers were treated to a showcase of how far the Celtics have come — from previous struggles to now being the reigning champions ready to defend their title. The camaraderie and grit that have defined this franchise for generations were palpable as Boston made a statement that they intend to be a force to reckon with once again. Fans roared as each three-pointer drained through the net, and by the time the final whistle blew, many were already calling this night a classic.
Here’s a fun tidbit: the Celtics tied the NBA record for most three-pointers in a single game, matching the 2016 record set by the Golden State Warriors. Jayson Tatum played a central role in this achievement, and fans can expect much more from him this season! As history was made, it only seems fitting to note the Celtics' ongoing rivalry with the Los Angeles Lakers — together they've won a whopping 35 out of 78 NBA Championships, which is nearly half, making them the winningest franchises in league history. This season is primed to be one for the books!
