The Boston Celtics entered Tuesday night’s matchup with the Toronto Raptors coming off of a low-effort loss to the Chicago Bulls. Toronto was also attempting to get back into the win column following a loss to the Orlando Magic. Tuesday’s primetime matchup was a showcase of the solid product that Toronto has put together and everything that’s wrong with this year’s Celtics.
Jaylen Brown was very involved early off the bench, asserting himself on offense by putting the ball on the floor and getting to the rim. His aggressive play allowed him to grab 7 first-quarter points on 2/2 shooting.
