Payton Pritchard isn’t a particularly large individual. At 6’1” and 195 pounds, his ability to play in the NBA despite his relatively diminutive stature is fairly awe inspiring. But in Game 1 of the Boston Celtics’ Eastern Conference Finals matchup with the Miami Heat, Pritchard was not a feel-good story about a scrappy undersized guard.
He was baby food.
Jimmy Butler took advantage of Pritchard on mismatches repeatedly. Salting away the game down the stretch with a blend of midrange shot making and foul drawing.
