The Boston Celtics’ winning ways continued on Sunday evening as TD Garden, as once again, they hosted and summarily dispatched a quality NBA team. This time, the victim was the upstart Minnesota Timberwolves, who have been similarly hot through the month of March as they’ve surged up the Western Conference standings. The Wolves have been playing excellent two-way basketball lately, but they just couldn’t hold up against the Celtics’ relentless scoring attack.
Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown led the way, as always. The duo combined for a whopping 65 points on the evening, supported by a lively 36-point showing from the rotation players on Boston’s bench.
