The New York Knicks are one win away from reaching the conference finals for the first time since 2000 after beating the Boston Celtics in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference semifinals. The Knicks can advance to the conference finals by defeating the Celtics in Boston on Wednesday in Game 5.

The Knicks pushed the Celtics to the brink of elimination on Monday, but much of the conversation after Game 4 of the Eastern semifinals centered around Jayson Tatum's injury.

Boston Celtics superstar Jayson Tatum exited Game 4 against the New York Knicks with an apparent non-contact injury.

Despite the Celtics missing their All-NBA forward, the Knicks are still 4.5-point underdogs ahead of Game 5. It's far from a due or die game for the Knicks, who hold a two-game lead over their East rival. ESPN's Stephen A. Smith delivered a crucial message on whether he would be nervous if the Knicks lost Game 5.

The Boston Celtics have had some injury concerns throughout the playoffs, and that is no different entering Game 4 against the New York Knicks.

All eyes will be on TD Garden tonight as the Jayson Tatum-less Celtics look to avoid being eliminated from their second-round matchup against the Knicks.

The Boston Celtics say star Jayson Tatum had surgery to repair a ruptured right Achilles tendon that will sideline him for the remainder of the playoffs
