It was a career night for Semi Ojeleye. His career-best 22 points helped a depleted Celtics team win in Cleveland on the back end of a back-to-back. Without Kemba Walker, Jaylen Brown, and Gordon Hayward, Semi lead a bench mob of first and second year players in a nice bounce back performance after Tuesday’s debacle against the Nets. And it what’s become customary for Boston, his teammates celebrated his big game with a post-game interview shower:
