The Celtics got a big win on Sunday afternoon over the Knicks but New York came out of the game with more concerns than the loss itself. Star big man Karl-Anthony Towns appeared to suffer a left knee injury in the fourth quarter while attempting a dunk on Boston center Kristaps Porzingis.

New York Knicks fans couldn't believe that Tom Thibodeau sent Karl-Anthony Towns back into the game after he was injured.

The Knicks connected on just 43.5 percent of its shots and committed 11 turnovers in Sunday's loss to the Celtics. “The versatility, I think, is terrific,” Thibodeau said.
