Two Saturday games from the Brotherhood that deserve special attention: the Celtics vs. the Warriors and the Grizzlies vs. the Bucks.
Jayson Tatum continues his rise with a 44 point, ten board effort against Stephen Curry and the Warriors. It’s the fifth time he’s topped 40 points in his young career.
Curry had 47 as the Celtics won 119-114. Newest Celtic Jabari Parker played 16 minutes and scored 11 points on 5-6 from the floor.
Meanwhile, in Milwaukee Grayson Allen had another big game as he shot 9-13 and 7-10 overall, finishing with 26 points.
People never really think about this, but look at the players Allen played with in his four years at Duke: Quinn Cook, Tyus Jones, Justise Winslow, Jahlil Okafor, Luke Kennard, Brandon Ingram, Tatum, Harry Giles, Frank Jackson, Gary Trent, Wendell Carter and Marvin Bagley.
