Tatum is now the franchise leader after his forty 30-point game since the beginning of the season and passed the record of Larry Bird, who had 39 games with at least 30 points in the 1987-88 season.
Jaylen Brown notched 27 points and grabbed 7 rebounds as Derrick White helped for the victory with twenty-two points and 9 assists.
That was Boston’s 4 win in their last 5 matches, and they are 27-9 at TD Garden.
Until the end of the regular season, Boston will play at home in 5 of their last 8 matches and try to overcome Bucs in the first place in the Eastern Conference.
“It was good to get a great, all-around win.”
