Boston Survives Another Scare to Remain Perfect at Home

With the victory, Boston becomes the first team to reach 25 wins, sitting at 25-6 through 31 games.

On a night where Boston was without Jayson Tatum and Kristaps Porzingis, Jaylen Brown was able to pick up the slack. JB finished with 31 points, 10 rebounds, 7 assists, and a game-high +12.

Derrick White (21 Pts, 5 Reb, 7 Ast) was huge down the stretch, knocking down timely shots when the Celtics needed them.

Despite Toronto knocking down 17 threes, which is 6 above their season average, the Celtics were able to get just enough stops down the stretch to get the win.
