Boston Celtics rack up 125 points against the Toronto Raptors—without relying on their usual three-point barrage. Can Joe Mazzulla's squad thrive with a more versatile shot selection? John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal highlights Payton Pritchard’s relentless paint attacks, Sam Hauser’s adaptability, and Derrick White’s steady two-way performance as Boston shifts focus to high-percentage two-pointers. The Celtics’ ball security and poised offense have ranked number one since December, sparking questions about sustainability and playoff potential.
Jaylen Brown’s surprising revelations about an ongoing wrist injury and his candid response to officiating controversies take center stage. With Brown dominating at the free-throw line and sharing insights on modern treatment methods, his leadership and adaptability are in the spotlight. Trade rumors swirl around the Celtics—with possible moves for Ivica Zubac—while looming tests against the San Antonio Spurs and Victor Wembanyama add intrigue.
