The Boston Celtics say superstar Jayson Tatum ruptured his Achilles tendon.
It happened late in Game Four of the Celtics' second round playoff game against the New York Knicks Monday.
Tatum had to be carried off the court and was seen being pushed in a wheelchair.
He won't return this season, and the team said there is no timetable for Tatum's return, but he is expected to make a full recovery.
The defending champion Celtics are one loss away from being eliminated from the playoffs.
