Celtics 113, Kings 95

 

We finally get the band back together - Brown, Holiday and Jrue all returning to the Celtics' starting lineup - when a flagrant foul by the Kings' Domantas Sabonis injures Jayson Tatum in the Third Quarter. Tatum left the game with an injured right ankle, although the Celtics are optimistic that he won't be out for long.

Despite playing only 25 minutes over three quarters, Tatum still led the team with 25 points, including 5 of 9 from downtown.

Anyway, the Celtics won the game, their 6th straight win, and are now 4.5 back from the idle Mavs, who are in Portland tonight. Boston's long (six game) road trip continues with a game tomorrow night in Phoenix.
