Brown Goes Showtime During C’s Rout of Lakers

LOS ANGELES – Two and a half weeks ago, the Celtics flew out West for their first West Coast trip of the season and dropped an absolute dud during their opener against the Sacramento Kings.

Apparently two times is a charm, because the Celtics opened up their second West Coast trip Friday night in Los Angeles with a resounding 115-95 victory over the rival Lakers that featured touches of showtime from Jaylen Brown.

Brown and the Celtics flew coast-to-coast Thursday, and they played end-to-end basketball Friday night against the Lakers. Their dominant efforts at both ends of the court turned this matchup into a laugher before fans flooded the concessions at halftime.
