SAN ANTONIO — \u2014 Victor Wembanyama<\/a> had 39 points and 11 rebounds and the San Antonio Spurs<\/a> beat Boston 125-116 on Tuesday night to sweep a contentious two-game season series with the Celtics.<\/p>\n

De’Aaron Fox<\/a> had 25 points and Stephon Castle<\/a> added 18 points in San Antonio’s fifth straight victory.<\/p>\n

Derrick White<\/a> had 34 points to lead Boston, which had won two straight. Jayson Tatum<\/a> had 24 points in his third game since returning from a ruptured right Achilles tendon<\/a> suffered May 12.<\/p>\n

Tatum\u2019s fourth and final 3-pointer cut the Celtics’ deficit to 118-113 with 1:43 remaining, but Spurs Castle followed 18 seconds later with his own 3 to secure the victory.<\/p>\n

The battle between the No. 2 teams in each conference was physical and chippy.<\/p>\n

Boston All-Star Jaylen Brown<\/a> was ejected after becoming incensed when no foul was called after he lost the ball out of bounds with 3:42 remaining in the first half.<\/p>\n

Brown had to be restrained by teammates after official Tyler Ford assessed the first technical. Official Suyash Mehta assessed a second technical seconds later, resulting in an automatic ejection.<\/p>\n

Wembanyama also exited to the locker room in a huff following a no-call in the first half, but his was due to injury.<\/p>\n

Wembanyama’s nose was struck by Sam Hauser\u2019s palm and then he was hit in the eye and forehead by the back of Hauser’s forearm. Wembanyama remained on the court for about a minute holding his face in pain.<\/p>\n

Wembanyama went to the locker room and he did not return to the Spurs bench until the close of the first quarter to prepare for the start of the second.<\/p>\n

Boston was 19 for 51 on 3-pointers after opening 9 for 17.<\/p>\n

Celtics: At Oklahoma City on Thursday night.<\/p>\n

Spurs: Host Milwaukee on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n
