A stellar first-half defensive effort and another impressive double-double performance from Charles Bassey propelled the Boston Celtics to a 94-81 win over the New York Knicks in an NBA 2K26 Summer League battle at Cox Pavilion in Las Vegas on Sunday.

The Boston Celtics are still looking for frontcourt help, and a recent addition to the Summer League roster could prove to be the answer.
