In a series that forced the Celtics to shift away from their usual style, the Magic never solved the Tatum problem. He slammed the door on them with 35 points, 10 assists and eight rebounds in Game 5 after dominating in crunchtime of Game 4 in a 37-point, 14-rebound outing.

The Magic were never able to pull away from the Celtics in Game 5 thanks to Jayson Tatum and his bag of tricks, and the Boston star made Orlando disappear with another monster performance.

After hitting the shot, Tatum sent a message to the Magic during the game's broadcast, which WEEI's Jon Lyons shared on X. Tatum sent a two-word message saying, "Go home!" insinuating that the Magic's season was over.
