Jayson tatum and Sam Hauser got older Celts On Sunday night, helping visitors cross their fifth consecutive victory 129-116 on the Blazers of Portland Trail. Boston played without three starters in victory (Jaylen Brown, Kristaps Porzingis, Jrue Holiday) But that did not stop an excellent offensive performance of the remaining regulars.
Tatum flirted with a triple-double in the victory, publishing 30 points, 9 rebounds and 9 assists, with most of his marking damage after intermission, including 18 points in the third quarter. Hauser added 24 points in the shot of 8 of 10 of the 3-point range, as visitors scored 30 more points during the first three quarters, helping them to build a two-digit advantage that was never serious in the second half.
The five Celtics In the face of double figures, as Boston fired 54 percent of the field and 46 percent of the 3 -point range of victory. Luke Kornet also had 13 pineapples on the bench in the 6 of 6 shot from the field.
Shaedon Sharpe had 23 points for the hosts in the mishap, as the Blazers lost to Boston for the second time this month.
The Celtics will not have much time to celebrate the Sunday victory with a Monday night at Sacramento.
Then there are four to take away from the Celtics victory Sunday night:
Sam Hauser fires from outside the bow: The Sharshooting striker took advantage of his start with one of the best shooting performances in his career. Hauser demolished his first five baskets at night and struck the 7-8 in the first three quarters only before the end of the 8-10 at night to establish the tone for a high power boston offense despite losing three headlines. Hauser has been red since the three-point range since the All-Star Pause and has now shot 50 percent or better beyond the bow in four of its last five games. Going through Boston usual in the section is much easier to remove with Hauser by providing this type of production.
Jayson Tatum comes to life in the third quarter: The All-Star had a quiet first time, but it exploded for the Celtics offensively when the need in the third quarter, as Portland’s offense was shot. Tatum made seven of his 11 shots in the frame while playing the whole quarter to score 18 of the 38 Boston points in the period. He also added three assists in the frame while playing next to the second unit for a large part of the period, again showing his ability to get a great crime, regardless of who is around him on the court. The Celtics shot 60 percent in frame and 53 percent of the 3 -point range from the frame.
Baclor Shingman GTS and Big Chance: With the Celtics down three headlines and Payton Pritchard with problems with problems in the first quarter, Scheierman received the call as a sixth man and kept his own on one of the biggest nights in his starting season. The Rookie demolished a couple of three and was also active when driving and kicking, finding numerous open shooters, including Hauser in the middle of Boston’s strong offensive night. Even after his performance against the grandchildren last week, he shows more consistency in his outings, and this will make a long way for this team to gain matches while he was reduced in recent weeks of the regular season.
Portland loves Payton Pritchard: The child in the hometown was getting older than most of the list of Blazers for most of the night, as many green t -shirts were extended through the center of Soda. Pritchard won his first start of the year with Jrue Holiday left out and shook problems for another excellent shot night from long distance, passing the 4 of 9 beyond the bow. He also added five 32 -minute assists while playing basketball without turnover. The only start place should do nothing to move away from its sixth Man of the Year campaign, but it was a fantastic gesture by Joe Mazzulla to give it the initial gesture in front of his fans in his hometown.
