Scoring a playoff career-high of 53 points, Celtics All-Star Isaiah Thomas was simply sensational in Boston's 129-119 Game 2 victory over the Washington Wizards on Tuesday — the day that would have been the 23rd birthday of his sister, who passed away last month.
Thomas simply took over down the stretch, scoring 30 of his 53 points in the fourth quarter and overtime period.The Celtics All-Star was just hitting clutch shot after clutch shot for Boston, like this jumper over Markieff Morris in overtime.
Reacting to Thomas going off, Twitter went wild in praise of the Celtics All-Star:
All-timer performance from Thomas. Allllllllll timer.

It’s hard to win a 53-minute game playing four dudes, and also playing against a 5-foot-9 physical manifestation of the Power Cosmic

If Isaiah Thomas isn’t your favorite player I have no idea why you’re even watching sports.
