Boston hosts Chicago in a matchup of Eastern Conference teams. Wednesday's matchup is the first this season for the squads.
After the game, Celtics star Jaylen Brown made an eye-opening remark about Porzingis that should send chills down the rest of the NBA.
Top Performers Coby White – 16 points, 3 assists Patrick Williams – 16 points, 7 rebounds Boston – Top Performers Kristaps Porziņģis – 34 points, 11 rebounds, 8 3PM, 3 assists Season-highs in PTS and 3PM Jaylen Brown – 28 points,
Kristaps Porzingis starred in this win with 34 points and eight three-pointers. Jaylen Brown was not far behind with 28 points.
Brown finished with 28 points (10-18 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 7-11 FT), six rebounds, six assists and one steal over 36 minutes during Wednesday's 122-100 victory over the Bulls. The 28-year-old wing has found his rhythm.
What might be bugging the Georgia native, if anything? Could he be out of sorts by the new substitution patterns used by Boston head coach Joe Mazzulla in the 2024-24 regular season, or the role he has on the team as a result?
In a surprising turn of events, the Boston Celtics fell to the Houston Rockets 114-112 on Monday night, as Dillon Brooks lit up the court with a career-high 10 triples. The unexpected offensive explosion from Brooks shocked the Celtics, leaving stars Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown to acknowledge the improbable performance.
