Celtics fans remain hopeful for Jayson Tatum after he suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon in a game against the Knicks.

Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum suffered a torn right Achilles tendon during Monday night's playoff loss to the Knicks, the team announced Tuesday. Tatum has already undergone surgery, and though an exact timetable for his return is not immediately clear, he is expected to miss a significant portion, if not all, of next season.

The Celtics extended the series with a blowout victory, but they got just 1 point and one rebound from their starting center.
