Basketball's back. Sports are back. That long, weird, mid-winter interbellum is finally over and to celebrate, the Boston Celtics traveled out to Oakland and beat the Golden State Warriors with a Jaylen Brown triple double.
Mr. Brown had 23 points, 15 rebounds and 13 assists last night. His 10.9 field goals per game is tied with SGA for first in the NBA, and his 29.2 points per game is fourth. Mr. Pritchard led both teams with 26 points and Mr. Hauser had the hot hand last night on threes, going 4-5 outside the line.
The Currys, Steph and Seth, are both out, but our old friend Kristaps Porziņģis scored 16 last night for the Warriors and Al Horford scored five while leading his team with eight rebounds. Glad to see our old friends doing well.
The Celtics (36-19) are in first place in the Atlantic Division but still trail the Detroit Pistons by 5½ in the Eastern Conference playoff race.
The West Coast road trip will continue with a 6:30 pm (Eastern time) game on Sunday against the Lakers (33-21), featuring Luka Dončić, LeBron James, and our old friend Marcus Smart. The game will be aired on NBC.
