The Celtics improved to 2-0 at the Las Vegas Summer League on Tuesday behind a huge performance by Aaron Nesmith, as the Celtics claimed a 107-82 win over the Nuggets.

Here are the takeaways.

1. Nesmith caused some mild consternation among Celtics fans with a 1-for-8 performance from behind the 3-point line in his Summer League opener, but he roared back with seven triples in nine attempts on Tuesday, tallying 33 points on 18 shots.

Asked about his struggles, Nesmith said he was upset about his performance, but he stuck to his routine.

“In the gym yesterday I made sure I went through the same routine,” Nesmith said.
