The end of the Boston Celtics' Game 4 loss to the New York Knicks on Monday was devastating. Far worse than going down 3-1 in their second-round series was the fact that Jayson Tatum was lost for the remainder of this run (and likely next season) after rupturing his Achilles tendon.

The New York Knicks enter the Game 5 matchup of the Eastern Conference semifinals with a 3-1 lead over the Boston Celtics.

Sure enough, with his stellar play against New York in Game 5, Kornet has inserted himself into NBA history. According to Celtics senior writer Taylor Snow, Kornet becomes the only player in league history to record his above statline or better.
