Latvian Kristaps Porzingis scored 27 points and grabbed 12 rebounds while Jayson Tatum added 24 points and Jaylen Brown contributed 23 points for the Celtics, who improved to an Eastern Conference-best 60-16.

LOS ANGELES: Jayson Tatum scored 31 points as the Boston Celtics held off a late fightback from the Milwaukee Bucks to win 122-119 in their top-of-table Eastern Conference clash on Wednesday (Mar 20). Boston had looked to be cruising towards their seventh straight victory after dominating Milwaukee for long periods at the TD Garden. Exploiting the absence of injured Bucks talisman Giannis Antetokounmpo, the Celtics surged into a 21-point lead late in the third quarter after Milwaukee had closed to within five just after half-time. But a blistering fourth quarter performance by Milwaukee – who outscored the Celtics 36-21 in the final frame – set up a nerve-shredding finale before Boston squeaked home. “It was ugly,” Tatum admitted. “We didn’t play the way we wanted to in the fourth quarter, and they went on a run. “No lead is safe in the NBA. But a win is a win and we’ll take it.” Boston improved to 55-14 with the victory, leaving them a hefty 11 games clear of the second-placed Bucks. The Celtics now need just …
