"Dejounte Murray's Heroics Lift Hawks Over Celtics in OT Thriller"

The Boston Celtics suffered an overtime loss to the Atlanta Hawks due to a rare lapse in defensive rebounding, allowing the Hawks to capitalize on second-chance points. Despite this anomaly, the Celtics maintained their typical shooting standards and saw strong performances from Jayson Tatum, Derrick White, and Kristaps Porzingis. Dejounte Murray's career-high 44 points for the Hawks was not due to Celtics' defensive lapses, but rather his high number of field-goal attempts. While the second-chance scoring margin was a significant issue in this game, it's not a cause for concern based on the team's overall season performance.
