The Maine Red Claws won an overtime nailbiter against the Fort Wayne Mad Ants as Boston Celtics two way guard had a big bounceback game with help from two way teammate Tacko Fall.
The 123-119 win over the Indiana Pacers’ developmental affiliate wouldn’t have been possible without Waters’ 22 points and 5 assists on 9-of-16 shooting, with some late-game heroics proving crucial to securing the victory, the Claws’ 24th of the season.
The LSU product was named to the Midseason All-NBA G League team earlier in the week despite a couple of off games recently as Waters continues to have an outstanding season with Maine.
Fall added 12 points, 14 boards and a pair of assists to the win over 33 minutes of game time, including a few flashy dunks.
The win gave the Claws the second-best record in the G League, trailing only the 26-8 Wisconsin Herd for the developmental league’s best winning percentage.
The Red Claws next face the College Park Skyhawks at home on Thursday, February 20th at 7pm ET, and the game can be seen on ESPN+.
