The Boston Celtics secured their second consecutive blowout win at Gainbridge Fieldhouse on Saturday night, defeating the Indiana Pacers 118-101 with a dominant performance on both ends of the court led by star Celtics forward Jayson Tatum with 38 points, 13 rebounds, and 6 assists.
Tatum’s hot shooting, efficient playmaking, and aggressive rebounding led the Celtics to victory, while fellow All-NBA forward Jaylen Brown helped lock up the opposing team’s best players. The Celtics responded to a Pacers run in the third quarter by stepping up in the fourth, maintaining composure. And Tatum’s killer instinct in the fourth quarter was a key factor in the team’s victory. Boston held Indiana to their lowest-scoring game of the season, getting a modicum of revenge for their ouster from the in-season tournament by the Pacers.
The hosts of the CLNS Media”How Bout Them Celtics!” podcast weighed in on the victory on a recent episode.
