In Friday's NBA action, the Boston Celtics secured their first win of the season with a 107-103 victory over the New York Knicks at TD Garden.

Paul George and Neemias Queta each contributed 15 points in the win. The Knicks, the defending champions, fell to a 0-2 record despite 22 points and 10 rebounds from Karl-Anthony Towns and 20 points from OG Anunoby.

Elsewhere, the Miami Heat suffered their second consecutive loss, falling 128-111 to the Detroit Pistons. Despite a dominant performance from Giannis Antetokounmpo, who recorded 36 points and 12 rebounds, Miami struggled with shooting efficiency and defensive lapses.
