In a stunning display of dominance, the Boston Celtics showcased their prowess as they secured a commanding 117-99 victory over the struggling Philadelphia 76ers at TD Garden. With a final score that left no room for doubt, the Celtics asserted their superiority on their home turf, covering the spread as an 11.5-point favorite.
Led by the dynamic duo of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, the Celtics left no stone unturned in their quest for victory. Tatum’s 29-point performance, combined with Brown’s impressive 31-point contribution, propelled the Celtics to an emphatic win.
Despite a valiant effort from Tyrese Maxey, who racked up an impressive 32 points for the undermanned 76ers, it was evident that Philadelphia sorely missed the presence of Joel Embiid on the court. With key players struggling to make an impact, the 76ers found themselves outmatched against a relentless Celtics squad.
