Pritchard, who the Boston Celtics selected with the No. 26 overall pick in this past NBA draft, dazzled yet again in Boston’s 116-111 come-from-behind victory over the Indiana Pacers on Tuesday night.
Pritchard was at the center of helping the Celtics overcome a 17-point second-half deficit, showcasing tremendous poise for a point guard that is getting his baptism by fire in the NBA.
