Boston Celtics News

Josh Minott in the first half of his first career start: 11 PTS 4/6 FG 7 REB 1 STL 1 BLK

First half ✅

#Celtics lead #Pelicans 65-54 at halftime. Solid offense but keeping NOP in the game with too many fouls. 18 fouls has led to 22 NOP free throws. BOS has 12 attempts.

Bullseye 🎯

Dunk? 10/10 Landing? Room for improvement 🤣

#Celtics are piling up personal fouls (17 in first half) and Jaylen Brown just got a tech. #Pelicans

Pritchard was the only Celtics player to grab more than six rebounds last night. Queta and Minott have each already passed that mark during tonight's first half.

8-0 #Pelicans run and DeAndre Jordan has changed the game. #Celtics haven't scored in 3:35.

#Celtics are having trouble scoring when the 3 isn't falling. Gotta find ways to score paint points. #Pelicans

Celtics led 33-24 after the 1Q last night. Tonight, they lead 34-26. This one feels a bit different, though. More cohesive at both ends, and doing a lot of the little things well.

Q2 coming up

The NBA is banning light-colored jerseys against the Celtics to keep them safe from Jaylen Brown's spray paint hairline.

Minott gets his first start with the Celtics, and slams home a dunk five seconds in.

Getting the start 👏

On the scene 🎬

Zion Williamson is OUT tonight for #Pelicans. #Celtics.

Jaylen Brown needs to fire his barber 😭

Final

Jaylen Brown drops a season-high 41 points, but the Celtics fall 119-113 to the Pistons in Detroit. Reactions?

This game was a marathon. Teams are also going to punish the Celtics on the glass all season.

Payton Pritchard can't be your leading rebounder, which he is for the #Celtics tonight. They are going to get pounded on the boards this season if nothing chances.
