Star Boston Celtics forwards Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum have a unique chemistry, and they know and depend on it. And we all got a bog collective reminder of that fact in the Celtics win over the Orlando Magic in the 2025 NBA Eastern Conference Playoffs first round series.

After Wednesday’s win, Celtics All-Star Jaylen Brown kept it 100 about the Magic as the best-of-7 series shifts to Orlando for Games 3 and 4. While his team cruised to a pair of wins at TD Garden, with and without Celtics All-Star Jayson Tatum, he’s expecting better performances from the Magic.

Boston led by 15 points in the second half, then held off a late push by Orlando. The Celtics hit 12 3-pointers and went 25 of 33 from the free-throw line. Derrick White and Brown had 17 of Boston's 28 points in the final period; White finished with 17.
