DENVER — For the second time this week — and for the second time this season against the Denver Nuggets — Jayson Tatum had the ball in his hands with a chance to put the Boston Celtics ahead in the closing seconds.

Once again, Tatum didn’t take advantage of the opportunity.

With the Celtics down by two, Tatum missed a wide-open corner 3-pointer with 45 seconds to go, capping an ugly performance on what turned out to be Boston’s final chance to take the lead. After the miss, Nikola Jokic finished a 32-point, 12-rebound, 11-assist triple-double with a lob to Aaron Gordon for a dunk that extended Denver’s lead in its 115-109 victory.

“That corner 3, it was a good shot,” Tatum said. “I thought it was going in. We had some opportunities.”
