However, while the young standout had a game-high 31 points on top of 10 rebounds and six assists in another all-around effort, he deflected the credit to two of his teammates.</p><p>Tatum praised Celtics big men Daniel Theis and Enes Kanter, who both provided tenacity and energy inside the paint.</p><blockquote>“Those guys were big tonight. Lot of effort and heart, especially Enes. He never knows when he’s gonna play, but he always gives great effort and energy,” Jayson Tatum said of Daniel Theis and Enes Kanter, per <a href="https://twitter.com/KeithSmithNBA/status/1309703207371894788" rel="noopener noreferrer">Keith Smith of Yahoo Sports</a>.</blockquote><p>Indeed, Theis and Kanter proved to be key pieces in their all-important Game 5 win. Theis had a double-double of 15 points and 13 rebounds, and provided three blocks and countless hustle plays. Meanwhile, Kanter had eight points, four rebounds and two assists in 10 quality minutes.</p><p>The 28-year-old Kanter, who joined the Celtics this year, saw his minutes go down late in the season with Theis blossoming into a more versatile center. However, the native of Turkey has stayed positive despite his diminished role. On Friday, he was an instant spark off the bench when he came in the third quarter, making quick baskets down low.</p><p>Theis and Kanter teamed up to outplay Heat’s All-Star big man Bam Adebayo, who was limited to only 13 points after averaging 21.5 markers in the first four games of the series. Bam, however, had eight rebounds and eight assists.</p><p>The Celtics will try to force a winner-take-all Game 7 on Sunday night.</p><figure class="op-tracker"><iframe><script>  (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){  (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),  m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)  })(window,document,'script','https://www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga');  ga('create', 'UA-66147751-16', 'auto');  ga('set', 'campaignSource', 'Facebook');  ga('set', 'campaignMedium', 'Instant Article');  ga('set', 'title', ia_document.title);  ga('send', 'pageview');</script><script type="text/javascript">      window._taboola = window._taboola || [];      _taboola.push({          article: 'auto',          ref_url: 'http://instantarticles.fb.com'      });      !function (e, f, u, i) {          if (!document.getElementById(i)) {              e.async = 1;              e.src = u;              e.id = i;              f.parentNode.insertBefore(e, f);          }      }(document.createElement('script'),          document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0],          'https://cdn.taboola.com/libtrc/clutchpoints-clutchpoints/trk.js',          'tb_loader_script');      if (window.performance) {          if (typeof window.performance.mark == 'function') {            window.performance.mark('tbl_ic');          }        }</script></iframe></figure></article>    </body></html>

Jayson Tatum sank the free throw to extend their advantage to 93-85. That ignited a quick 14-6 run as the Celtics erected a 16-point lead, their highest of the game.</p><p>It proved to be enough for the boys from Beantown as they scored a convincing 121-108 win to force Game 6 and keep their hopes alive. Theis, who also doesn’t shy away from physical play, delivered another impressive performance with a double-double of 15 points and 13 rebounds. He also added three blocks.</p><p>Iguodala, who is looking to play in his sixth straight NBA Finals, ended up with two points, four boards, and two rejections. He’s been trying to replicate his off-the-bench role with the Golden State Warriors, providing defense and veteran <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/heat-news-andre-iguodala-explains-what-heat-culture-is/">leadership</a> for the relatively young Heat squad.

The 22-year-old took the opportunity to playfully <a href="https://twitter.com/BleacherReport/status/1304637835907969024">call out</a> TNT host Shaquille O’Neal for not even knowing the name of Tatum’s teammate, Daniel Theis.</p><p>Here’s Tatum talking to the TNT crew, as he praised the contributions of Theis not only in this game but throughout the series:</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Tatum confronts Shaq about knowing Daniel Theis’ name 😅 <a target="_blank" href="https://t.co/SqP7g6wJCp">pic.twitter.com/SqP7g6wJCp</a></p><p>— Bleacher Report (@BleacherReport) <a target="_blank" href="https://twitter.com/BleacherReport/status/1304637835907969024?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 12, 2020</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Theis did not exactly have an amazing performance on Friday, as the 6-foot-8 big man was hounded with foul trouble for pretty much the entire contest and was even <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/raptors-video-norman-powell-coast-to-coast-for-dunk-on-daniel-theis/">posterized</a> earlier in the game. Theis finished with just five points, five rebounds, a steal, and two blocks in just 23 minutes of play. However, there’s no denying that he has been a key cog for Boston this season.</p><p>The other guy Jayson Tatum talked up in his interview is Marcus Smart, who himself has another tremendous outing in Game 7. The All-Defensive first-team member logged 16 points, two rebounds, six assists, three steals, and a block. As Tatum described above, however, Smart’s countless contributions for Boston go way beyond the box score. Smart had just one block in this one, but it turned out to be one of, if not the most important defensive stop in the series for the Celtics.</p><p>Tatum himself was not bad on Friday, finishing with a game-high 29 points on 9-of-23 shooting, with 12 rebounds, seven assists, a steal, and a block in 44 minutes of action. He led Boston to an epic Game 7 victory, as the C’s have now booked their place for a matchup against the Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference Finals.</p><figure class="op-tracker"><iframe><script>  (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){  (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),  m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)  })(window,document,'script','https://www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga');  ga('create', 'UA-66147751-16', 'auto');  ga('set', 'campaignSource', 'Facebook');  ga('set', 'campaignMedium', 'Instant Article');  ga('set', 'title', ia_document.title);  ga('send', 'pageview');</script><script type="text/javascript">      window._taboola = window._taboola || [];      _taboola.push({          article: 'auto',          ref_url: 'http://instantarticles.fb.com'      });      !function (e, f, u, i) {          if (!document.getElementById(i)) {              e.async = 1;              e.src = u;              e.id = i;              f.parentNode.insertBefore(e, f);          }      }(document.createElement('script'),          document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0],          'https://cdn.taboola.com/libtrc/clutchpoints-clutchpoints/trk.js',          'tb_loader_script');      if (window.performance) {          if (typeof window.performance.mark == 'function') {            window.performance.mark('tbl_ic');          }        }</script></iframe></figure></article>    </body></html>
