The Boston Celtics seem to be turning a corner. If you’ve spent too much time stuck in mall traffic or going down deep discount online shopping wormholes, we’ve got you covered. Here’s a look back at the week that was.
Here’s how it went
The Celtics limped into New Orleans fresh off maybe their worst stretch of the season and with an injured Jaylen Brown. He didn’t play in any of the past week’s games, which gave Brad Stevens an opportunity to do something new with the starting lineup.
With Marcus Smart and Marcus Morris now taking the opening tip with Kyrie Irving, Jayson Tatum, and Al Horford, the Celtics blasted out of the gates with a 22-9 run.
