Boston’s star player Jayson Tatum scored 36 points and the Celtics ended a long road trip on a high note by beating the Sacramento Kings 132-109 on Tuesday night.

Jaylen Brown added 27 points and Derrick White scored 20 to help the Celtics open up a one-game lead over Philadelphia in the Atlantic Division.

Domantas Sabonis had 16 points, 13 rebounds and 12 assists for the Kings, who lost consecutive games for the first time since Feb. 3-5. De’Aaron Fox scored 18 points.
