Celtics, Rozier take aim at Suns

PHOENIX -- With Kyrie Irving expected to miss at least three weeks, Boston needed someone to step up.

Terry Rozier, come on down.

Rozier, who has made six starts in place of Irving, had the best game of his career on Sunday when he scored 33 points on 12-of-16 shooting and made eight 3-pointers -- one short of the franchise record -- in a 104-92 victory over the Sacramento Kings.

Isaiah Thomas and Antoine Walker share the Celtics' record with nine 3s in a game.

Rozier also had five rebounds and three assists for the Celtics (50-23), who have won the first two games of a four-game trip that continues Monday with a stop in Phoenix against the Suns (19-55).
