When the final buzzer sounded, the Celtics had made 29-of-61 three-point attempts—good for a 47.5% clip. Jayson Tatum led the team with 37 points on eight makes beyond the arc, and every other starter finished with at least three triples against New York.

The Celtics and New York Knicks took the court for the opening game of the NBA season Tuesday night, a clash that Jalen Brunson said Tuesday morning was a fair barometer -- despite being the first game -- for where the new-look Knicks stand against the defending champions.

The Boston Celtics raised their championship banner Tuesday night before blowing out the Knicks, 132-109, at TD Garden.
