BOSTON — Jaylen Brown drained back-to-back threes to open the third quarter in the Celtics’ 109-100 win against the Magic.
Amid the barrage of three-pointers, he could have kept shooting.
Instead, he passed up a couple of clean looks, opted to find open teammates, and made correct read after correct read, helping get Derrick White (17 points, 5 assists) and Al Horford (9 points, 10 rebounds) get going too.
Brown finished the game with 36 points (12-19 FG), 10 rebounds, and 5 assists. He hit 5 of 7 three-point attempts and 7 of 8 free throws.
