The Boston Celtics have historically struggled at the Kia Center, the home of the Orlando Magic. And when it looked like those troubles might continue on Sunday afternoon, the C's came alive down the stretch to secure a 108-97 win on the road.

Celtics star Jayson Tatum led the way for Boston once again, notching 32 points (on a game-high 17 attempts from the charity stripe), 7 assists, and 4 rebounds in 34 minutes. He hit multiple big shots for the Green Team in the fourth quarter and assisted on a 3-pointer from Celtics wing Paul George that made it a 106-95 contest with just 1:32 remaining. George finished with 17 points, 8 assists, 6 rebounds, 2 steals, and 2 blocks in the Celtics' first road win of the season. Off the bench, Boston got key contributions from center Luka Garza and wing Baylor Scheierman, who each set season-highs for scoring with 12 points and 10 points, respectively.

As for the Magic, guard Anthony Black recorded 23 points and 8 rebounds, helping make up for the absence of guard Jalen Suggs who's out with a bone bruise. Magic forward Tristan da Silva also scored 23 points, using his 5 triples to keep Orlando in the game. Despite his hot shooting, the Magic couldn't overcome losing the turnover battle (18-13) and letting up 21 points off of those mistakes.

After defeating the now 2-4 Magic, the Celtics have won five games in a row, tying their longest winning streak from last season. The 5-1 C's will aim to keep that momentum going on Monday night when they travel to Texas to face the 6-1 Houston Rockets.
