Boston avoids elimination after beating Philadelphia in Game 6.

After the match, Jayson Tatum said that he believes he is one of the best NBA players and proves it when it matters the most.

Tatum was crucial in the last quarter when he notched from the 3-point line and helped the Boston Celtics to win against the Philadelphia 76ers 95-86 at Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, PA, and the decisive match from the East Semifinals matchup will be at TD Garden.

Last year Celtics also were losing against the Bucks 3-2 in the 2nd round, but they won Game 6 in Milwaukee and clinched the series with a victory in Boston.

Game 7 is on Sunday at TD Garden. The winner will face Miami Heat or New York Knicks, as Heat is leading 3-2 in the series.

Jayson finished with only 19 points but scored the most important ones.

Embiid and Maxey each notched 26 points for the 76ers.
