The Boston Celtics’ road trip to the nation’s capital this week was a matter of business as much as leisure. Just a day after the team visited the White House to celebrate their championship win with President Joe Biden, the Celtics returned to the court in Washington, DC for their second showdown with the Wizards of the year — this one also the team’s third Emirates NBA Cup matchup. This was, put frankly, not a particularly exciting game — both teams shot in the low-40% range for the night — but the Celtics were able to score a win, 108-96, and bolster their point differential in tournament play in the process.
