The Celtics, who had started the season with an impressive 20-0 record at home, saw their 27-game home win streak dating back to the previous season snapped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Boston&#8217;s last defeat on their home court occurred in a double-overtime game against the New York Knicks on March 5, 2023. Despite this setback, the Celtics&#8217; 20-0 start remains the best in franchise history. They currently hold the best record in the NBA with 32 wins and 10 losses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As expected, Nikola Jokic played a pivotal role in leading the defending champions as they aimed to end the streak. The MVP candidate delivered an impressive performance, finishing with 34 points on 14-of-22 shooting, along with 12 rebounds and nine assists. Interestingly, he was also at the literal center of the game&#8217;s most peculiar call.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/24hscore.org\/basketball\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong><em>Basketball Live score<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"521\" height=\"327\" src=\"https:\/\/24hscore.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/image-17.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2110\" style=\"width:787px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/24hscore.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/image-17.png 521w, https:\/\/24hscore.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/image-17-300x188.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 521px) 100vw, 521px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon&#8217;s free-throw attempt with 17 seconds remaining and the Nuggets leading 102-100, Jokic feigned a move into the paint between Kristaps Porzingis and Jaylen Brown. In response, both Celtics players jumped into the lane to block him, allowing Brown to secure an easy rebound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The officials made the decision to label the play a double lane violation, leading to a jump ball and giving possession to the Celtics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">This was called a jump ball not a lane violation lmfao <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/pgCaZ1urT4\" rel=\"nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/pgCaZ1urT4<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Aadan (@JMurrayWrld) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JMurrayWrld\/status\/1748540024335851646?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">January 20, 2024<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Following the jump ball, Jayson Tatum gained possession and called a timeout. Subsequently, he had an opportunity to either tie the game or secure a victory but was unsuccessful in both attempts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">&quot;Tatum&#39;s turnaround jumper falling short in what feels like something we can see again in about five-and-a-half months, Doris, in June.&quot;<br><br>Mark Jones on the call as the Nuggets hand the Celtics their first home loss of the season. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/MCjV95pHEr\" rel=\"nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/MCjV95pHEr<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Awful Announcing (@awfulannouncing) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/awfulannouncing\/status\/1748541597866717338?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">January 20, 2024<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was an engaging match that concluded on a less appealing note, as the two teams collectively made just one field goal in the last 2:50. In general, the Celtics&#8217; shooting performance at 42.7% posed a challenge, even with minimal turnovers and a competitive effort on the boards against the NBA&#8217;s leader in contested rebounding rate. Tatum and Brown together shot 15 of 43, accumulating 35 points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Boston Celtics&#8217; flawless home record came to an end as the Denver Nuggets secured a 102-100 victory at the TD Garden on Friday.
