“It’s fun the way we play. Everyone helps, we have fun,” said the 24-year-old on US television after beating Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving’s team. Durant had 37 points in his second game from injury, while Irving had 19.
For the Celtics it was the third win in a row and an important one in the fight for direct qualification for the playoffs. The Nets, on the other hand, suffered their fourth bankruptcy in a row and are under pressure.
National player Daniel Theis played ten and a half minutes for the Celtics and during this time he had three points and one assist, one rebound and one block.
